Description

The Medicina REUSABLE ENTERAL SYRINGE is an essential tool for healthcare professionals and caregivers, designed to ensure the safe and accurate delivery of enteral feeds, medications, and flushes. Suitable for neonatal, paediatric, and adult patients, this syringe is versatile for use in both home and hospital environments.

Key Features

• ENFit Compliance: As part of the ENFit ISO Standard range, this syringe is compliant with ISO 80369-3, significantly reducing the risk of misconnections with intravenous or Luer devices. The ENFit connector ensures compatibility with enteral equipment, eliminating the need for adapters.

• Reusable Design: Crafted for durability, the syringe can be reused for up to 7 days or 40 washes. Its three-piece construction includes a barrel, plunger, and a silicone O-ring gasket that maintains a secure seal and prevents swelling during cleaning.

• Accurate Dosing: Available in various sizes, including 1ml and 2.5ml with a low dose tip design, it features clear measurement markings for precise dosing. The purple color coding differentiates it from other syringes, enhancing patient safety.

• Secure Connection: The syringe features a female connector end with a locking mechanism that uses a quarter-turn to prevent accidental disconnection and over-tightening. The wide internal tip diameter allows better flow for gravity or bolus feeds and reduces delivery pressures for medications.

Material and Safety

• Safe Materials: Made from DEHP, latex, and PVC-free materials, the syringe is safe for all patients. Each syringe is sterile and individually packaged, ensuring hygiene and safety.

• Compatibility: Compatible with various accessories such as adapters and caps, which are available separately.

Cleaning Instructions

To maintain hygiene, clean the syringe immediately after use with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry with disposable kitchen roll. The plunger and barrel should be cleaned separately and stored apart in a clean, dry container. Avoid using dishwashers, boiling water, or abrasive materials. For patients under 1 year or those who are immunocompromised, use sterile water or a cold sterilising solution as instructed. Discard the syringe after 7 days, 40 washes, or if any damage occurs.

Packaging Options

The Medicina REUSABLE ENTERAL SYRINGE is available in multiple sizes ranging from 1ml to 60ml. Packaging options include individual packaging, packs of 8, and boxes of 60, 80, or 100 syringes, depending on the size. This flexibility allows for tailored solutions to meet varying healthcare needs.
