Intended Use
The PowerLoc MAX® Power-Injectable Infusion Set is an intravascular administration set with a non-coring right angle needle and manually activated needle stick prevention safety mechanism which reduces the risk of accidental needlestick injuries by shielding the needle. The needle is used to access surgically implanted vascular ports. The PowerLoc MAX® Power-Injectable Infusion Set is indicated for use in the administration of fluids and drugs, as well as blood sampling through surgically implanted vascular ports. When used with ports that are indicated for power injection of contrast media into the central venous system, the PowerLoc MAX® Power-Injectable Infusion Set is also indicated for power injection of contrast media. For power injection of contrast media, the maximum recommended infusion rate at 11.8 cPs is 5 ml/s for 19 gauge and 20 gauge needles, and 2 ml/s for 22 gauge needles. The SafeStep® Huber Needle Set is a device intended for insertion into the septum of a subcutaneously implanted port and for the infusion of fluids into the port. The SafeStep® Huber Needle safety feature is manually activated during needle removal, and is designed to aid in the prevention of accidental needlesticks.
Device Story
PowerLoc MAX and SafeStep Huber needle sets are intravascular administration sets used to access surgically implanted vascular ports. Devices feature non-coring right-angle needles and manually activated safety mechanisms to shield needles post-removal, reducing needlestick risk. PowerLoc MAX supports power injection of contrast media at specified flow rates (up to 5 ml/s for 19/20G, 2 ml/s for 22G). An optional pre-loaded stabilization device accessory aids in port access by stabilizing the port during needle insertion. Devices are used by healthcare practitioners in clinical settings. Output is the delivery of fluids/drugs or contrast media, or blood withdrawal. Benefits include reduced needlestick injury risk and reliable port access.
