The 5ml Posiflush XS (Externally Sterile) from Becton Dickinson is a pre-filled saline syringe designed for flushing intravenous catheters and maintaining line patency. The externally sterile packaging makes it suitable for specialised IV flush techniques performed in sterile environments, supporting infection prevention protocols in critical care and immunocompromised patient settings.
Suitable for flushing peripheral and central venous catheters before and after medication administration, blood sampling and IV therapy. Particularly appropriate for procedures requiring sterile gloves and a sterile field, and for the care of patients with significant immunosuppression. Used widely in hospital wards, intensive care units, oncology departments, neonatal units and outpatient infusion clinics.
