What is it indicated for?

The syringe filling device component of B-D® TWINPAK™ is for use in drawing up fluids/medications from vials and ampoules without requiring other accessories. Once the syringe is filled, the filling device is detached from the syringe. The syringe is then reattached to the blunt plastic cannula which provides access to fluid path for injection/aspiration of fluids. The B-D® TWINPAK™ offers the convenience of delivering a syringe filling device and a blunt plastic cannula for access into split septum IV sites for injection/aspiration of fluids.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
