Discofix® C with Safeflow and Extension Line
Multidirectional stopcock with tubing for infusion therapy

Discofix® C CS (Closed System) stopcocks enable needle-free access to the patient and allow the adjustment of flow direction and stop of flow with the handle to control the administration of one or more infusion solutions or liquid drugs in parallel or after each other and / or for injection and aspiration of fluids.

The fluid path of the integrated valve opens by the penetration of a luer cone (e.g. a syringe) and closes automatically upon removal of the cone to ensure a closed system acc. to NIOSH definition during the application.

The extension line towards the male port separates the stopcock or manifold from the patient to reduce complications such as catheter movement and vascular irritations.1-7
