The AutoKVO™ KIT is a system that incorporates the Go Medical Springfusor® Syringe Infusion Pump and Flow Control Tubing (FCT)
AutoKVO 10 mL Springfusor, a simple reusable spring-driver pump used for continuous infusion of 0.9% saline using a pre-filled 10 mL flush syringe. Prevents catheter occlusion. Reduces flushing technique errors. Easy to teach. Requires no batteries or electricity.
A Flow Control Tubing set with needle-free Y-Site to access intermittent infusions including: IV Push / Gravity / LVP pumps / Ambulatory Pumps / Elastomeric Pumps / Springfusor 10; 30 & 50 mL syringe pumps and other IV delivery devices.
Features:
24-Hour Flow Rate (10ml, .033ml/hour) per Pre-Filled 10-ml syringe
Compact, lightweight, and very portable
No programming required
Not gravity dependent
Once-daily /PRN replacement of pre-filled saline solution cartridge is all that is required.
About AutoKVO
“KVO” = Keep the Vein Open
“AutoKVO” = Automatically (and continuously) Keep the Vein Open and reduces catheter occlusions
Mission:
Provide an enhancement to Midline, PICC Line and CVC IV Catheters Standard of Care which:
Keeps the Vein Open continuously, with the daily replacement of Saline Cartridge in the spring-loaded “Springfusor” by the patient or caregiver. The “Springfusor” maintains positive flow of saline continuously … keeping positive pressure on the catheter … thus preventing reflux and occlusion.
Benefit:
Greatly reduced Incidence of Occlusion; Lower Level of Care Required
Resulting in:
Greatly reduced Need for Re-Insertions, Infections, Re-admissions; Lower Cost of Care.
KVO Springfusor®, 10ml
An exclusive model to be modified to accept a 10 mL Pre-filled Saline Flush Syringe (fits both B-D and Monoject syringes) and companion Flow Control Tubing (FCT). In addition, each KIT features a Y-Site needle-free injection site for Intermittent Drug Delivery.
Maintaining positive pressure in the catheter avoids reflux and clotting of blood (Catheter Occlusion), which can lead to infections and complications that may cause re-hospitalization.
