Choose a category or subcategory
For extending infusion and transfusion lines.
Minimum Volume Lines are used to extend infusion and transfusion lines by attaching them to a luer lock connection. The products are flexible tubings with Luer connectors at the proximal and distal end for combination with other medical products. Minimum Volume Lines are used in all medical disciplines where IV therapy is performed. The tubing with small internal diameter minimizes the contained volume and benefits the usage for pediatric/neonate patients.
