Infusioonikoti

Infusioonikoti, also known as an infusion bag or IV bag, is a sterile, flexible container used in medical settings to hold and deliver intravenous fluids. These fluids can include saline solutions, electrolytes, medications, or blood products. The bag is typically made of medical-grade plastic, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or non-PVC alternatives, designed to be durable, non-reactive with the fluid content, and capable of withstanding sterilization processes.

Infusioonikotid are a critical component of intravenous therapy, providing a safe and controlled method for administering fluids directly into a patient's bloodstream. They are designed with specific ports or access points for connecting to an IV administration set, which then connects to the patient's venous access. The design of the bag ensures sterility is maintained throughout the process, preventing contamination and potential infections.

The volume of infusioonikotid can vary significantly, ranging from small bags for specific drug dosages to large bags for rehydration or nutritional support. They are often translucent or transparent, allowing healthcare professionals to visually inspect the fluid for clarity, color, and any particulate matter. Some bags may also feature markings or graduations to indicate the volume of fluid remaining. The development and use of infusioonikotid have greatly advanced medical treatment by facilitating efficient and safe fluid and medication delivery.
