Patients can rely on intravenous fluids and infusions to maintain daily health or save lives. An increasingly serious problem facing hospitals is the infection that may be caused by intravenous infusion. In order to improve the safety of patients, professionals have developed a special three-way plug valve. There are two main differences between the (MRVLS) plug valve and the competitor: one is a Luer-activated valve that acts as a barrier to bacteria; the other is a novel internal passage that ensures self-rinsing and minimizes residue. Elcam Medical needs high performance materials to achieve this goal. In order to meet such requirements, a series of polycarbonate plastics have been developed which have proven to be effective in the field of medical technology.


New security concept
The design of the MRVLS plug valve provides a new concept of safety. A special self-sealing valve prevents the infusion solution and other liquids from flowing back, creating an almost closed system. Original equipment manufacturers say this actually eliminates the known risks because open, difficult to flush and clean infusion ports can cause infection. The minimum residual volume and the internal volume of the punch through the inner circumferential passage are continuously flushed, forcing the fluid to flush the self-sealing valve. This helps prevent bacterial colonization. Completely flushing away the medication and air from the system increases patient safety, reducing the chances of drug interactions, unwanted residual drug management and the risk of air embolism.
