Disposable Roller Lock Infusion Set Lombarda H

The Lombarda Disposable Roller Lock Infusion Set is a medical device designed for the safe and efficient administration of intravenous solutions and other therapeutic liquids directly to the patient. Thanks to its disposable structure, it guarantees maximum hygiene, avoiding any risk of cross-contamination between patients. The infusion occurs via a roller valve control system (roller lock) which allows the flow speed to be managed precisely and reliably, adapting administration to different clinical needs. The entire structure of the set is designed to be resistant and transparent, facilitating the visual control of the liquid and the prevention of any air bubbles or occlusions. The universal luer lock connection ensures a stable, leak-free connection with most catheters, extensions and venous accesses available in healthcare. The infusion set is configured as an indispensable tool for both short-term and long-term therapies, finding application in clinics, hospitals, nursing homes and in the home environment under close medical supervision. Each set is individually packaged in a sterile bag to ensure maximum safety for both healthcare personnel and patients.

Therapeutic Indications

The Lombarda Disposable Roller Lock Infusion Set is mainly used for the administration of parenteral solutions, such as fluids, nutrients, medicines, electrolytes and intravenous drugs. Indicated for continuous or intermittent infusion therapy, the set is ideal for patients who require hydration, maintenance of electrolyte balance, infusion of antibiotics, chemotherapy or special solutions for nutritional support. It can be used both in emergency conditions and in scheduled treatments, representing a valid solution for the management of patients in internal medicine, intensive care, surgery, oncology, geriatrics and day hospital departments. The roller flow control system allows precise dosing of liquids, minimizing the risk of overdose or excessively rapid administration, a fundamental aspect when used on pediatric, elderly and fragile patients. The device can also be used in association with manual or electronic infusion pumps, always providing reliable support for any type of necessary infusion therapy.

Composition

The infusion set is made up of transparent, latex-free medical PVC tubes to allow constant visualization of the passage of fluids and avoid allergic reactions. The upper terminal easily connects to the solution bag or bottle thanks to a piercing tip compatible with any type of sterile container. A roller flow regulator (roller lock) is applied along the main tube, which allows the speed of administration to be increased or reduced in a fluid and progressive manner, guaranteeing maximum safety and therapeutic adaptability. The system features a graduated drip chamber for accurate detection of the infusion rate. Near the lower end we find the luer lock connector, which ensures solid and leak-free connections with cannulae, catheters or other venous access devices. The constituent materials are free of DEHP and toxic substances, thus reducing the risks of chemical contamination and adverse reactions in sensitive patients.

Contraindications

Do not use the Lombarda Disposable Roller Lock Infusion Set in case of known hypersensitivity or allergy to the materials constituting the device, such as PVC or other plastic components. The use of the set should be avoided where the use of reusable infusion devices is required, in patients for whom intravenous therapy is not recommended due to specific clinical conditions or in suspected cases of contamination of the set itself (damaged integrity of the package, presence of foreign bodies or turbidity of the material). It is contraindicated for use other than parenteral infusion or for the administration of liquids that are not compatible with the materials of the set, such as highly lipophilic solvents, oils or chemically aggressive preparations that could damage the tube or internal parts. Do not reuse the product after the first application and do not use after the expiry date or at the end of the sterility period declared on the original packaging. In case of adverse reactions during use, stop administration immediately and consult your doctor.

Safety of the drug for the species

The Lombarda Disposable Roller Lock Infusion Set is designed to guarantee a high standard of safety for both the patient and the operator. The disposable structure eliminates any risk of cross-contamination resulting from previous uses and the sterile packaging protects the device until use. The presence of the roller lock system allows the flow to be regulated in order to prevent accidental overdoses which could cause serious complications such as pulmonary edema, volume overload or too rapid administration of highly toxic drugs. The transparency of the materials helps to promptly identify the formation of air bubbles and avoid accidental injection, offering a physical barrier between the patient and the main causes of infusion complications. Each component of the set has been designed to eliminate critical points that can favor microbial growth, significantly reducing the risks of systemic infections or septicemia related to infusion therapy.

Precautions

Before use, always check the integrity of the packaging and make sure that the set is completely sterile; Do not use if the package is damaged or opened. It is essential to avoid reusing the set as home sterilization does not offer the same safety guarantees as industrial production, increasing the risk of infections or complications. When preparing and handling the device, always wear appropriate gloves and observe standard hygiene rules. Check the chemical compatibility between the solution to be infused and the materials of the set, avoiding use with liquids that could deteriorate its structure or cause the release of unwanted substances. Pay particular attention to the correct connection of the luer lock system to prevent accidental leaks or sudden disconnection. Once the infusion is finished, dispose of the set according to current regulations for sharp healthcare devices contaminated with biological fluids, making sure it is out of reach of children and pets.

Method of administration

The use of the Lombarda Disposable Roller Lock Infusion Set requires careful preparation: open the sterile package immediately before use and, maintaining maximum asepsis, connect the piercing tip to the bottle or bag of solution to be infused. Fill the drip chamber to the recommended level and purge the air from the tubing, then adjusting the flow using the roller lock to the speed prescribed by your doctor. Connect the end of the tube equipped with the Luer lock connection to the cannula needle or venous access device already positioned on the person to be treated. During administration, constantly monitor the infusion rate, the presence of air bubbles and the good functioning of the system, adapting the speed if necessary. Once the solution has run out or the therapy has ended, close the roller lock and delicately remove the set from the patient, taking care not to cause trauma or contamination.

Treatment program

The infusion set is used whenever intravenous therapy is prescribed, whether continuous or intermittent, based on the specific indications provided by the medical or nursing staff. It can be used with all types of sterile solutions, including those containing diluted medicinal products, nutrients, electrolytes and solvents authorized for intravenous use. The use interval of the device corresponds to the duration of the single infusion, after which the set must be immediately disposed of. In therapeutic protocols that involve repeated cycles of infusions, the set must always be replaced for each new treatment in order to prevent infectious or incompatibility risks. The infusion rate and cycle duration must be established exclusively by healthcare personnel, based on the clinical conditions, age and general state of the patient; However, the roller lock allows precise customization for each individual case, both in hospital departments and in a controlled home environment.

Target species

The Lombarda Disposable Roller Lock Infusion Set is intended exclusively for human use for patients of any age group, including infants, children, adults and the elderly who require venous access for the administration of therapeutic solutions. Use on animals is not foreseen, but can be taken into consideration in the veterinary field only after evaluation and responsibility of the veterinary surgeon, with particular attention to adapting the set to the dimensions and specific needs of the animal species treated.
