Indications for Use
The Contami-Shield™ Breathing Circuit Sleeve, indicated for use with mechanically-ventilated patients, is intended to reduce the gross external contamination of the breathing circuit during use. When used in conjunction with a bacterial/viral breathing filter, the Contami-Shield is intended to provide improved protection against contamination of the breathing circuit over a breathing filter alone.
Device Story
The Contami-Shield Breathing Circuit Sleeve is a protective, single-patient-use sleeve designed to cover the external surface of a breathing circuit. It is used in conjunction with a bacterial/viral breathing filter to provide an additional layer of protection against external contamination. The device is not in physical contact with the patient and does not use electrical energy. It is intended for use with ventilators, anesthesia machines, and open flow systems. The sleeve is slipped over the circuit prior to use and allows for the removal or replacement of filters or HME filters while the sleeve remains in place. It benefits the patient by reducing the risk of external contamination of the breathing circuit.
Indicated for mechanically-ventilated patients to reduce gross external contamination of the breathing circuit. Contraindicated for use with breathing circuits equipped with exhalation valves, water traps, nebulizers, or heated wires.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A breathing circuit bacterial filter is a device that is intended to remove microbiological and particulate matter from the gases in the breathing circuit.
