Nipro NiproSet™ Blood Tubing with TP and Filters (3-in-1)1. Key BenefitsThe NiproSet™ Blood Tubing System provides a fully integrated 3-in-1 solution combining blood tubing, transducer protectors, and priming sets for streamlined hemodialysis procedures. Transducer protectors are clear throughout to meet CMS guidelines, engineered to maintain monitoring while decreasing exposure to the dialysis machine. The integrated design offers financial savings, ease of use, and waste reduction while ensuring comprehensive patient safety through advanced filtration and contamination prevention.2. IndicationsNipro NiproSet™ Blood Tubing with TP and Filters is indicated for:Extracorporeal blood circulation during hemodialysis treatmentsChronic and acute hemodialysis applications requiring pressure monitoringDialysis procedures requiring contamination preventionTreatments utilizing various dialysis machines (Fresenius 2008, Baxter 1000/Arena, B.Braun Dialog, and others)Standard hemodialysis with integrated safety featuresClinical settings requiring CMS-compliant pressure monitoring3. How it WorksBlood Tubing Circuit: Medical-grade PVC tubing with 8.0mm pump segment creates extracorporeal blood pathway between patient vascular access and dialyzer. Arterial line transports blood from patient to dialyzer inlet, while venous line returns filtered blood to patient.TP-Sure™ Transducer Protector (0.1 Micron Filter): A sterile pressure monitoring device designed to be clear all throughout, allowing for easy monitoring, reducing the potential for patient-to-patient contamination, and meeting government safety guidelines. The 0.1-micron inner filter provides bacterial and endotoxin barrier protection while maintaining accurate pressure readings.Priming Set: Individually-packed priming sets compatible with Nipro Dose-Saver Syringe offer Luer-Lock connections for secure attachment and efficient priming procedures with reduced waste.Anti-Foaming Drip Chambers: Feature versatile medication ports and anti-foaming technology to minimize splashing, enhancing safety during blood circuit setup and medication administration.4. Quality and SafetyManufacturing Excellence: Manufactured by Nipro Medical Corporation under strict FDA-registered quality standards, ensuring consistent performance and regulatory compliance.Safety Features:Clear transducer protectors throughout for continuous visual monitoring0.1-micron filtration preventing bacterial contaminationAnti-foaming drip chambers reducing aerosol exposureLatex-free construction for allergic patient safetyCMS guideline compliance for infection controlBiocompatibility: Medical-grade PVC tubing and materials tested for blood contact compatibility, minimizing hemolysis and inflammatory responses during treatment.Sterility Assurance: Single-use sterile packaging with rigorous quality control testing ensures contamination-free delivery for every dialysis treatment.5.
