Kid-man dicoSPIKE Chemo Withdrawal Cannula with Bacteria and Particle Filter, Red, Sterile, Phthalate-Free

The Kid-man dicoSPIKE chemo withdrawal cannula is a specialized medical device engineered for the safe preparation and transfer of hazardous medications in clinical oncology environments. This sterile, phthalate-free cannula is designed to facilitate the secure withdrawal of drugs from vials while minimizing the risk of exposure to healthcare personnel. It features an integrated 0.22 µm bacteria and particle filter, which ensures that the transferred medication remains free from contaminants, maintaining the highest standards of safety and hygiene during complex medical procedures.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this cannula is its robust design that prioritizes both patient and staff safety. By incorporating a high-efficiency 0.22 µm filter, the device effectively traps bacteria and particulate matter, ensuring the integrity of the medication being prepared. The phthalate-free construction addresses concerns regarding chemical leaching, making it a safer choice for sensitive medical applications. Its specialized design for hazardous drug handling provides a reliable, airtight connection that prevents leakage and accidental exposure, thereby supporting a safer working environment for oncology staff.

Suitable for

• Preparation of hazardous drugs in oncology departments
• Safe transfer of medications from vials to infusion systems
• Clinical settings requiring sterile medication handling
• Healthcare facilities prioritizing staff protection from cytotoxic agents

When it may not be suitable

This device is specifically designed for the withdrawal of hazardous drugs and may not be appropriate for standard, non-hazardous fluid transfers where such high-level filtration is unnecessary. It should not be used with medications that are incompatible with the filter material or in procedures where the specific flow rate requirements of this cannula are not met.

Key specifications

• Integrated 0.22 µm bacteria and particle filter
• Sterile and phthalate-free construction
• Color-coded for easy identification (Red)
• Designed for secure vial connection

How to use

To use the Kid-man dicoSPIKE cannula, ensure the packaging is intact and sterile before opening. Attach the cannula securely to the vial containing the hazardous drug following standard clinical protocols for cytotoxic handling. Use the integrated filter system to draw the medication into the syringe, ensuring that the connection remains tight throughout the process. After the required volume has been withdrawn, carefully disconnect the cannula and dispose of it according to institutional guidelines for hazardous medical waste.

What to consider before purchase

• Compatibility with your specific vial sizes and medication types
• Institutional protocols regarding the use of closed-system transfer devices
• The necessity of 0.22 µm filtration for your specific clinical workflow

Usage recommendations

Always verify the integrity of the sterile packaging before use and ensure that all staff are trained in the proper handling of hazardous drugs to maximize the protective benefits of this device.
