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