The Linear Health ScienceTM Orchid Safety Release ValveTM is a tension-activated accessory for single patient use and placed between the existing IV administration set and IV extension set connection. The Orchid SRVTM is intended for use with electronic IV pumps in peripheral IV catheter applications where tension may act on the IV tubing. The Orchid SRVTM is designed to allow flow to an IV catheter. When excessive tension acts on the line, the Orchid SRVTM separates and closes the flow path in both directions. The Orchid SRVTM can be used during intermittent infusion and continuous infusion.
The Orchid SRVTM is intended to aid in reduction of peripheral IV mechanical complications requiring IV replacement.
The Orchid SRVTM is for use with patients two (2) weeks of age and older.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
