B Braun Sangofix Blood Administration Set - Non Vented

- The B Braun Sangofix is a non-vented blood administration set for the administration of blood and blood components stored in flexible bags for gravity administration
- The device can be used for all patients for which infusion therapy is prescribed. Sangofix can be used for adults, paediatric and neonate patients
- Blood Filter 200? / 11cm2
- The blood filter with 11 cm2 surface area helps to prevent particulate contamination by retaining particles >200 ? and consequently helps to avoid transfusion of blood clots and cellular debris resulting from storage
- During a laboratory test, Sangofix with a filter surface of 11 cm2 was used to successively administer 10 erythrocyte concentrates while providing a higher flow rate than required by ISO 1135-4
- Hanging filter basket arrangement for soft impingement of blood drops
- Drip Chamber
- The blood administration set has a clear, non-vented piercing spike with blunt tip to prevent puncturing of bag
- Its fully transparent dome offers visibility for a constant visual monitoring of flow rate
- Its elastic pump chamber allows easy and quick set-up of fluid level
- Roller Clamp
- Integrated spike protection at roller clamp for disposal
- Parking position to attach the patient connector to roller clamp
- Spin-Lock Connector with PrimeStop
- The protective PrimeStop cap stops blood leaks while priming the set and thus lowers the risk of blood exposure which could lead to microbiological contamination
- The BT set features a screw-tight Spin-Lock connector that helps to avoid accidental disconnection during transfusion which could lead to microbiological contamination
- The rotating collar of Spin-Lock connector prevents twisting of IV line during connection
- The latex free BT set is pressure resistant up to 400 mm Hg. (approx. 0.5 bar)
- The DEHP-free blood administration set comes with female luer lock connector

- Open roller clamp and prime Sangofix until free of air
- Close roller clamp
- Patient connection:
- Remove PrimeStop cap
- Then move collar of Spin-Lock Connector backwards to activate its rotating function
- Move collar forward and screw it clockwise onto the Caresite extension set
- Start blood transfusion:
- Open roller clamp and adjust flow rate
- Control drop rate during transfusion
- To interrupt or stop transfusion, close roller clamp
- How to disconnect:
- Unscrew the collar of Spin-Lock Connector counter-clockwise
