Sterile Disposable Pediatric Burette IV Set – 150ML, Anti-Free Flow, Designed for Safe Pediatric Care

Common Uses & Applications

1. Pediatric Fluid and Medication Administration
   The primary use of the Sterile Disposable Pediatric Burette IV Set is for the precise administration of fluids and medications in pediatric patients. This includes hydration, electrolyte replenishment, and the delivery of IV medications. The accurate control of fluid volume is critical to avoid complications such as fluid overload, which can be dangerous for young patients.

2. Emergency and Critical Care
   In emergency situations, where rapid but controlled fluid resuscitation is required for pediatric patients, the burette allows healthcare providers to quickly and accurately administer fluids without the risk of free flow. It’s ideal for emergency rooms (ERs), pediatric intensive care units (PICUs), and other critical care environments.

3. Post-Operative Care
   After surgery, pediatric patients often need controlled IV fluid infusions to maintain hydration, electrolytes, and nutrition. The burette set ensures precise and controlled fluid delivery, reducing the risk of complications such as dehydration or overhydration.

4. Oncology and Chemotherapy Infusions
   Pediatric cancer patients receiving chemotherapy may require intravenous fluids as part of their treatment. The Pediatric Burette IV Set ensures that these fluids are administered safely and at precise volumes, which is especially important during chemotherapy when hydration and proper fluid balance are critical.

5. Neonatal Care
   For neonates, the 150ML capacity of the burette allows for the accurate administration of very small amounts of fluids, which is crucial for premature or low-birth-weight babies who have delicate fluid needs.

Who Should Use This Product?

• Healthcare Providers: Doctors, nurses, and paramedics in hospitals, clinics, and emergency care settings can rely on this IV set for safe pediatric fluid administration.

• Pediatricians and Neonatologists: Medical professionals caring for infants and young children in neonatal or pediatric care units will find this burette IV set invaluable for controlling fluid and medication doses.

Material Comparison: Pediatric Burette IV Set vs. Other IV Sets

• PVC vs. Non-PVC: The burette IV set is typically made of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), a durable and flexible material commonly used in medical devices. Some other IV sets may be made of non-PVC materials, but PVC remains a popular choice due to its reliability, sterility, and ease of use.

• Anti-Free Flow vs. Standard Flow Control: Unlike standard IV sets, which may lack additional safeguards, the Anti-Free Flow mechanism in this burette IV set ensures that accidental free flow of fluids is prevented. This is particularly important when administering fluids to children, where the risks associated with uncontrolled flow are higher.

Q: Is the Sterile Disposable Pediatric Burette IV Set suitable for all pediatric age groups?
A: Yes, the 150ML burette is appropriate for pediatric patients of various ages, including neonates, infants, and children. For very small babies, lower volume settings can be used for precision dosing.

Q: Can this IV set be used for blood transfusions?
A: While this IV set is ideal for administering fluids and medications, it is not specifically designed for blood transfusions. For blood products, specialized blood administration sets are recommended.

Q: How do I prevent air bubbles in the burette?
A: When setting up the IV, ensure that the burette is filled slowly to prevent air bubbles. The set is designed to minimize air intake, but it’s important to check the line for air before connecting it to the patient.

Q: Can this product be used for outpatient care or home healthcare?
A: Yes, the sterile, disposable nature of the burette IV set makes it suitable for outpatient care, home healthcare, and ambulatory care settings, where controlled, safe fluid administration is required.
