ChemoLock Vial Spike 20mm

The ChemoLock Vial Spike 20mm is an essential component of the BD ChemoLock Closed System Transfer Device (CSTD), designed for the safe and secure handling of hazardous drugs, particularly chemotherapy agents. As referenced on leading e-commerce platforms like , medical suppliers, and global marketplaces such as and , this device provides a needle-free connection to drug vials, minimizing the risk of exposure to healthcare professionals and contamination to the sterile drug. Its robust design ensures a tight seal, maintaining the integrity of the drug while preventing hazardous drug escape during preparation and administration. The 20mm size specifically accommodates vials with a 20mm closure.

Benefits of Use:

• Enhanced Safety: Significantly reduces exposure to hazardous drugs for healthcare personnel during preparation and administration.
• Prevents Contamination: Maintains drug sterility and prevents environmental contamination.
• Needle-Free Access: Eliminates the risk of needlestick injuries associated with vial access.
• Easy to Use: Designed for intuitive and quick attachment to drug vials.
• Maintains Vial Pressure: Balances pressure within the vial during drug aspiration, preventing aerosolization and drug leakage.
• Wide Compatibility: Specifically designed for 20mm vial closures, which are common for many chemotherapy drugs.

How to Use:

1. Carefully remove the ChemoLock Vial Spike from its sterile packaging.
2. Prepare the drug vial by disinfecting the rubber stopper according to hospital protocol.
