SecureConnect®

SecureConnect® is a needle-free connection system enabling safe and effective IV access for infusions of IV fluids, drugs and blood sampling.  

The SecureConnect® portfolio, includes a comprehensive range of connectors, single lumen and multi-lumen extension sets as well as bag spikes and other specialised products, all with the flat, easy to swab needle-free access ports.  

Every SecureConnect® valve is universally compatible with all types of luer devices including luer slip, luer lock and prefilled glass syringes.  

SecureConnect® valves are “split-septum” type that is characterised by a lower rate of Catheter Related Blood Stream Infections (CRBSI) than needle-free systems with mechanical valves.  

SecureConnect® connector valves are capable of very high flow rates and are compatible with high pressure contrast injections in CT scanning procedures. SecureConnect® extension sets and connectors can be safely used in most clinical applications and patient care areas.  

These products may be connected to peripheral IV catheters, PICC catheters, Hickman Lines and other central catheters to deliver pump, gravity or bolus infusions. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have questions about the Aurum compatibility alert published by the MHRA recently, please see our official company statement letter in our “Clinical Expertise” section on this website. Ethypharm, the parent company for Aurum, is in the process of updating the Aurum compatibility list to confirm that SECURECONNECT® is recommended for use with their emergency medicine syringes.
