Description
The BD Alaris PCA Kit ASV MICROBORE CV is a sterile extension set designed for secure, low-volume analgesia infusion. Built for use with BD Alaris infusion systems, this 90-inch microbore set features an integrated anti-siphon valve, check valve, and fixed male luer lock to help deliver controlled, unidirectional flow in PCA and critical care settings.
- 90-Inch Microbore Tubing – Extra-long design supports mobility and precise medication delivery with a priming volume of just 3 mL.
- Anti-Siphon Valve – Prevents unintended free flow, safeguarding against accidental overdose.
- Check Valve – Ensures one-way flow to protect against backflow and contamination.
- Fixed Male Luer Lock – Secure, tamper-resistant connection to compatible IV systems.
- Fluid Path Sterile – Reduces risk of infection and ensures aseptic infusion delivery.
- Contains Natural Rubber Latex – Not suitable for latex-sensitive individuals.
Optimized for Safety and Precision in PCA and Extended Infusions
The BD Alaris PCA Kit ASV MICROBORE CV is built for high-risk infusion applications such as patient-controlled analgesia (PCA), ICU therapy, and long-extension setups. With a low internal volume and microbore design, it supports fast and accurate drug delivery while minimizing residual medication waste. The integrated safety valves and fixed connector reduce potential for free flow, disconnections, or contamination—ensuring consistent protection for both patients and caregivers.
