Disposable Medical Sterile Luer Lock Cap Combi IV Stopper

An IV Stopper, also known as an IV cap or IV catheter cap, is a medical device used to seal IV catheters, infusion lines, or extension tubes. It prevents contamination and retrograde infections.

Key Functions of IV Stopper

*Sealing Function – Protects the IV line by preventing air, microorganisms, or debris from entering, reducing infection risk.

*High Compatibility – Designed with standard Luer lock or Luer slip connectors, making them compatible with most IV lines, catheters, or three-way stopcocks.

*Single-Use and Sterile – Packaged in sterile conditions and designed for single use to prevent cross-contamination.

Advantages of IV Stoppers

*Reduces Infection Risk – Effectively seals IV lines to prevent bacterial entry and lower the risk of catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI).

*Easy to Use – Can be easily twisted onto IV lines, improving efficiency for healthcare providers.

Usage Instructions and Precautions

*Aseptic Handling – Ensure the IV stopper packaging is intact before use, and avoid touching non-sterile surfaces.

*Proper Connection – Securely twist the IV stopper onto the IV line or catheter to ensure a tight seal.

*Regular Replacement – Single-use IV stoppers should not be reused. They should generally be replaced every 72 hours or according to hospital infection control protocols.
