Octopus 3 with Bionector

Octopus 3 with Bionector is a polyurethane, transparent, supple multi-lumen extension tube for IV catheters (peripheral or central venous).
To identify the different infusion lines, each line has a hub or a clamp of a different colour.
It allows to connect to the catheter several independant IV lines.


Code 841.364 is a triple lumen extension tube with 3 Bionector and 3 clamps (green, orange and white). 
Length of tubes: 10 cm / 10 cm / 10 cm
Code 842.312 is a triple lumen extension tube with 3 non-return valves, 3 Bionector and 3 clamps (white, green, orange).
Length of tubes: 6 cm / 6 cm / 6 cm
Code 842.311 is a triple lumen extension tube with 2 non-return valves, 3 Bionector and 3 clamps (white, green, orange). The end without non-return valve allows the blood sampling.
Length of tubes: 6 cm / 6 cm / 6 cm

Used for central venous catheter care, Octopus 3 has the following advantages:

• Provides a closed and disinfectable system with needle-free access
• Eliminates the need to use a 3-way tap to run 2 or more simultaneous compatible solutions
• Eliminates the risk of blood spillage
• Eliminates the risk of air embolism
• PUR material (no PVC, no DEHP - no release of softeners)

Non-return valves avoid reflux of fluids or drugs beyond the valve during multiple infusions.
Bionector can be disinfected with most of the antiseptic solutions (example: 70% alcohol). Avoid using antiseptic containing both alcohol and hydrogen peroxide.
