What Are The Famous Types of Infusion Sets in Brazil? (Tipos De Equipos De Infusão)

Normal IV Set

Parts, Materials, and Functions

Spike or perforator: It consists of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), and it serves to puncture the fluid bag or bottle and anchor the infusion set.

Protective cap: It is made of PE and prevents bacteria and dust from entering the spike.

Drip chamber: It consists of medical-grade polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It serves as a venue to count the drip rate of the fluid.

Solution filter: It is made of polypropylene, screening and filtering out bacteria and other impurities from the infusion fluid. 

Roller clamp: ABS or polyethylene (PE) make up this structure. It serves to regulate the flow rate of the infusion fluid.

Luer-slip connector: It is made of ABS, firmly connecting the tubing to the catheter.

Tubing:  It consists of PVC and serves as a conduit of fluid flow from the infusion bag to the patient. The normal length is 150cm.

20 Drops Luer Slip IV Set (EQUIPO LUER SLIP COMPLETO MACROGOTAS)

Parts, Materials, and Functions

Protective cap: It consists of PE, and it serves to protect the perforator from debris, bacteria, and other impurities.

Spike: It consists of ABS, and it serves to puncture the IV fluid bag or bottle.

Air vent with blue cap: It serves as the entry point of air coming from the outside environment. The air exerts pressure upon the fluid to facilitate its flow. The blue cap covers the air inlet when not in use.

Drip chamber: It consists of medical-grade PVC. It serves as a venue to count the drip rate of the fluid.

Solution filter consists of PP, screening and filtering out bacteria and other impurities from the infusion fluid. 

Y-injection site (Injetor Lateral) with latex-free rubber pad: It consists of ABS and serves as an injection site for medicine and other substances that medical workers need to introduce the infusion line. Manufacturers put in place a latex-free rubber pad to prevent occurrences of allergies.

Roller clamp: It consists of PE or ABS and regulates the flow rate of the infusion fluid.

Side clamp: It consists of ABS and temporarily stops the fluid flow when needed. 

Luer slip connector with cap: The Luer slip consists of ABS, connecting the tubing with the catheter. The cap consists of PE and protects the Luer slip from bacteria and other impurities when not in use.

Tubing:  It consists of PVC and serves as a conduit of fluid flow from the infusion bag to the patient. The normal length is 150cm.

20 drops luer slip iv set

Applications

Medical workers use this type of infusion set for relatively older children. The infusion set delivers 20 drops for every mL of fluid infused into the patient. Users slip or push on the Luer connector into the catheter or needle to establish the connection. The Luer slip type provides ease in inserting and removing the Luer connector from the catheter or needle. Still, unintentional removal from the catheter or needle poses a danger. Medical workers use this type of infusion set for short-term infusion and when nurses and other ward managers have the time to monitor the functioning of the infusion set periodically.

Roller clamp: It consists of PE or ABS and regulates the flow rate of the infusion fluid.

Side clamp: It consists of ABS and temporarily stops the fluid flow when needed. 

Luer lock connector with cap: The Luer lock consists of ABS, and it serves to connect the tubing with the catheter. The Luer lock connector ensures that the connection between the male-tapering fitting and the female mating part of a needle or catheter is leak-free, preventing fluid and medication loss. In addition, this infusion set provides a considerable degree of safety and security during the infusion because the catheter or the needle does not accidentally separate from the Luer connector unless the medical workers do so. The cap consists of PE and helps protect the Luer lock from bacteria and other impurities when not in use.

Tubing:  It consists of PVC and serves as a conduit of fluid flow from the infusion bag to the patient. The normal length is 150cm.

60 drops luer slip iv set

Applications

Medical workers use this infusion set to provide small volumes of infusate to younger children accurately. This infusion set delivers 60 drops per mL of fluid infused into the patient. Nurses and other hospital workers slip or push the Luer connector into the catheter or needle. The Luer slip type provides ease in inserting and removing the Luer connector from the catheter or needle. However, occurrences of unintentional removal from the catheter or needle could happen. Medical workers use this type of infusion set for short-term fluid administration and when nurses and other ward managers have the time to monitor the functioning of the infusion set periodically.
