medK has launched a needle-free solution for vascular access. The needle-free connection offers a secure and fast access to fluid lines eliminating the risk of needle sticks. The extension line can also be connected with a glass syringe. With the multi-way versions there is no need to use a stopcock or a manifold.

The devices are compatible for disinfection with IPA wipes (isopropanol). This and the smooth valve surface allows easy disinfection and reduces the risk of infections. The leak-free disconnection protects against blood contaminations for health workers. Once disconnected, it provides reliable closure and can stay up to 7 days or 200 activations with the patient. The fully visible flow path allows visual check of the fluid by the personnel.
The needle-free extension lines are also available with a combined check valve that safeguards against back tracking; are compatible with isopropanol, chlorohexidine, blood and lipids; are suitable for use in MRI procedures; and are latex and animal product free.
medK extension lines are available as single, dual and triple access with needle free or combined check valve.
