Bionector TKO® is a patented “To Keep Open” valve, with 100% bi-directional fluid control and a straight fluid pathway. Bionector TKO has been specifically designed to reduce catheter occlusion, and works by controlling the bi-directional flow of fluid, infusate and catheter tip blood reflux. Bionector TKO® Self-Administration Sets (SAS) feature all the benefits of Bionector TKO with a longer tube for patients to self-medicate in the comfort of their own homes.It has been developed with expert IV Nurse Specialists in Outpatient Parenteral Antimicrobial Therapy (OPAT) teams, the Bionector TKO Self-Administration Set (SAS) is transforming the way IV medication can be delivered. By using the Bionector TKO SAS, patients no longer need to visit the hospital for the therapy to be delivered. It features a 27cm polyurethane tube which is easy for patients to use and reduces the need for a community nurse to be there.
It has a wide variety of uses including:
Orthopaedics
Diabetics
Infectious diseases
Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT)
Needlefree extension set Extension line self administration set (sas) with bionector tko 27cm tube with clamp PUR
I.V. extension tube in flexible, transparent polyurethane tubing with Bionector TKO and mini Roberts clamp.
Octopus with Bionector TKO is a multi-purpose catheter accessory, a single lumen I.V. extension tube with needleless connector, enabling intermittent injections or continuous infusions of fluids or medications and blood sampling.
Octopus with Bionector TKO is a needleless catheter patency device that has been specifically designed to reduce thrombotic catheter occlusions and works by controlling the bi-directional flow of fluid, infusate and catheter tip blood reflux.
Octopus with Bionector TKO has a very easily disinfectable membrane (disinfection must be carried out before and after use) which closes automatically when the infusion line or the syringe is disconnected.
The proximal end of Octopus with Bionector TKO is a female Luer-Lock fitting and will accept any device featuring a male Luer or male Luer-Lock fitting (syringe, infusion set …).
Octopus with Bionector TKO features a male connector with mobile locking device to connect it to all devices featuring a female Luer-Lock hub (IV catheter…).
Octopus with Bionector TKO has the following advantages:
– Prevents occlusion risks from
. syringe and infusion set disconnection
. syringe plunger rebound
. IV bag running dry
. venous pressure changes (cough…)
– Eliminates the risk of access-associated needle-stick injury
– Reduces the risk of cannula movement in the vein causing mechanical vein irritation
– Provides closed system (avoiding blood reflux) when accessing the catheter
– PUR material (no PVC, DEHP-free), no leaching of plasticizers.
Octopus with Bionector TKO is lipid-resistant.
Priming volume : 0.75 ml.
Maximum infusion/injection pressure is 240 psi (16.5 bar).
Bionector can be disinfected with most of the antiseptic solutions (example: 70% alcohol). Avoid using antiseptic containing both alcohol and oxygenated water.
