1 One Link One Simple Solution A Neutral Design for Patients
2 One Simple Solution to help meet patient and clinician needs The One-Link connector s neutral fluid displacement is designed to help reduce the risk of thrombotic catheter occlusions compared to devices with higher reflux volumes. 1 The clear housing can enhance clinical practice. Double-seal design provides an effective barrier to microbial ingress Finger-grip design reduces the likelihood of touch contamination Straight fluid path promotes thorough flushing Smooth surface for easy cleansing reduces the risk of contamination Clear housing allows for visualization of the fluid path Non-PVC* and Non-DEHP for patients with special requirements * One-Link (7N8399) Engineered for simple performance 1 Neutral fluid displacement design helps reduce the risk of thrombotic catheter occlusions compared to devices with higher reflux volumes 2 Power injection compatible (up to 325 psi, 10 ml/second) helps minimize connector failure and change-outs Compatible, flexible design works with a variety of valved and non-valved vascular access catheters No clamping sequence required Simplifies training Clamp when not in use for patient safety Tested for use up to 7 days/200 actuations aligns with CDC 2011 guidelines for the prevention of intravascular catheter-related infections Saline or Heparin flush option allows clinician flexibility to follow facility protocols Note: refer to catheter manufacturers flushing instructions. Replace per institution protocol. The One-Link connector can be used for up to 200 actuations and over a period of 7 days. Replace device whichever comes first. One Link
3 One Simple Solution for CT/MRI applications Meets power injection needs 1 Compatible with power injection (up to 325 psi)* designed to prevent connector and tubing failure Helps minimize change-outs when used with compatible pressure rated catheter and extension set Maximum flow rate of 10 ml/second appropriate for a wide variety of patient types Meets FDA labeling recommendations for use with power injectors 3 Tubing and slide clamp identify maximum pressure for power injection compatible components * Prior to power injection, ensure all parts of IV system are compatible. Replace if a pressure over 325 psi is applied to the connector.
4 One Simple Solution for your patient s needs Universally appropriate 1 Neutral fluid displacement design designed to help reduce the risk of thrombotic catheter occlusions, compared to devices with higher reflux volumes 1 Low priming volume of 0.08 ml minimizes excessive flush volumes for fluid restricted patients Smooth surface, easy to cleanse promotes reduction of contamination Compatible with a variety of valved and non-valved vascular access catheters provides flexibility for use throughout the facility and may help reduce time and cost Double-seal design provides an effective barrier to microbial ingress Non-PVC and Non-DEHP for patients with special requirements The One-Link IV connector is intended for single patient use with a vascular access device for the administration of drugs and solutions without needles and can be used to aspirate blood. One Link
5 The Clinical Environment Key Issues with IV Connectors Catheter Occlusions Catheter occlusion is the most common noninfectious complication in the use of central venous catheters (CVCs) and occurs in approximately 33% of these catheters. 4,10 A common cause for catheter occlusion is clotting of blood refluxed into the catheter. Blood reflux occurs when an administration set or syringe is connected to a positive displacement connector or disconnected from a negative displacement connector. 4 Catheter occlusions can interrupt IV therapy, increase risk of serious complications, and add to the cost of care. 4 Bloodstream Infections The FDA has expressed concern about several clinical reports regarding the association of BSIs with positive displacement devices. 5 Facilities and governments have increased pressure to reduce hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). An estimated 248,000 bloodstream infections occur in U.S. hospitals each year with a large portion associated with CVCs. 6 These infections independently increase hospital costs and length of stay. 7 By several analyses the cost of these infections is substantial in terms of morbidity and financial resources expended. 7 Connector Failure Connectors not designed to tolerate pressures used for power injection can fail and harm the patient. 3 Failure can delay treatment of patient. 8 Studies have shown a relationship between the presence of thrombosis and CR-BSIs. 2 Estimated U.S. annual central venous catheters Number of CVCs placed per year 5,000,000 Percent thrombotic 10 58% Adapted from McKnight Training Requirements Multiple connectors with varied techniques can cause confusion and increased potential for errors. 9 IV needleless connectors have become complex in design. 9
6 One Link One simple solution for standardization 11 Allows for product standardization Helps reduce inventory Streamlines ordering The One-Link Connector is available in the following configurations For use with low pressure power injectors having a maximum pressure of 325 psi and a maximum flow rate of 10 ml/second Also available in other products (tubing not rated for power injection) 7N8399 One-Link With Neutral Fluid Displacement, Power Injectable (325 psi) 7N8378 One-Link Non-DEHP Standard Bore Catheter Extension Set with Neutral Fluid Displacement 7N8300 One-Link Non-DEHP Microbore Catheter Extension Set with Neutral Fluid Displacement, Power Injectable (325 psi) 7N8377 One-Link Non-DEHP Y-Type Standard Bore Catheter Extension Set with Neutral Fluid Displacement Rx Only. For safe and proper use of the One-Link devices, refer to the appropriate Instructions for Use. For safe and proper use of the SIGMA Spectrum pump, refer to the Operator s Manual. 7N8371 One-Link Non-DEHP Y-Type Microbore Catheter Extension Set with Neutral Fluid Displacement REFERENCES: 1.
