Single Use Disposables

CF Approval number : PP-CTP-ALL-0011-1 25

FDA defines a single-use device, also known as a disposable device, as

one which is “intended for use on one patient during a single procedure . .

. and is not intended to be reprocessed (cleaned, disinfected/sterilized)

and used on another patient.” ¹

Concerns about Reprocessing SUD

CF Approval number : PP-CTP-ALL-0011-1 26

- “Single-use devices may not be designed to allow thorough decontamination.

- Reprocessing may alter device characteristics, and performance may be compromised as a result.

- Single-use devices do not undergo extensive testing validation and testing for reuse.

- Single-use devices may cause cross-infection due to design (for example, fine bores of tubes).

- Some materials can absorb certain chemicals, which can gradually leach from the material over time.

- Chemicals may corrode or change device materials.

- Device material may experience stress during reuse and may fail, stretch, or break.

- Inadequately cleaned equipment can carry bacterial endotoxins, which remain after bacteria are killed.”¹

Beliefs to Create

27

Bayer syringes are designed, tested, and warranted as part of

the Total CT Injection System. Syringes are not a standalone

component.

BAYER syringe kits are an

integral part of the BAYER

total fluid delivery system.

We are dedicated to the quality of all of our products and

services and we are committed to maintaining our customer

satisfaction, loyalty and respect. That’s why we have designed

our development and manufacturing systems with a high

emphasis on quality. Quality and reliability controls are in place

for every Bayer product.

BAYER has extensive quality

systems to ensure Bayer

syringes are high quality.

Patient safety is paramount. Every Bayer syringe kit is ready to meet the specification of the

power injection system for a safe patient procedure. As the designer of the system, Bayer is

the only manufacturer that can consistently meet the stringent specifications.

BAYER is a reputable and reliable company

focused on meeting customer needs in

Radiology. To us, just as to our customers

worldwide, quality means patient safety.

Radiology is changing. To answer tomorrow’s challenges; we must change how we solve for

quality, cost, people, and process. More than ever, we need solutions that just “make sense”.

Bayer in Radiology leads with investment in innovation—from our roots in Bayer injectors and

contrast R&D, to state-of-the-art equipment service and radiology informatics. We believe

success comes from systems that are smarter by design, powered by people committed to

making a difference.

BAYER is proud of its innovation legacy in

Radiology.

Why Bayer

28 Syringe Quality Campaign – Solutions Kit

////////////

Made at our facilities in the United States, we have supplied over 300 million syringes to

20,000 hospitals and imaging centers worldwide—testament to the quality and trust

radiology professionals have placed in Bayer syringes.

Bayer syringes are an integral part of the total injection system.

As the original designers of the injection systems, Bayer is the only manufacturer that can

precisely identify how the system performs. The syringe is ready to meet the specifications of

the power injection system, which are quite stringent to assure the efficacy of the injection.

Bayer syringes and disposables have advantages in a variety of key aspects—material

quality, manufacturing, injector performance, and a legacy of commitment to patient

safety*.

The advantage of using Bayer syringes lies in*:

Aligned performance

Commitment to patient safety

Material quality

Manufacturing and sterilization processes

Packaging and distribution evaluation

Service-related benefits

And more

Looking at the example of Shenzhen syringe, you can tell

the syringe is not as clear as a Bayer syringe. That’s

because the barrel is molded from a different material

that does not have the same clarity or strength as the

Bayer syringe.

Pressure

limiting

A pressure limit is set to protect the consumables. The injector will use the

minimum amount of pressure it needs to propel the fluid out of the syringe

The pressure limit must be set for the lowest rate disposable in the fluid

pathway to the patient, such as the connecting tube, extension tubes and

cannula

A “pressure limiting” action in an injector limits pressure in the syringe by

reducing the flowrate during the injection. It is not an extravasation detection

action.

Higher concentration contrast media has higher viscosity.

The viscosity of intravenous CT contrast media is related to its ambient

temperature. Warming the media from 20°C to 37°C decreases its viscosity (cP)

resulting in lower injection pressures and may allow a reduction in cannula or

catheter diameter, a more efficient delivery and is better tolerated by the

patient1,2

It has been reported that warmed contrast media reduces the rate of contrast

media extravasations2

processes go above and beyond industry standards.

Each piece of material that we add to our line has to be approved by our biocompatibility team so that

anything that contacts the fluid path, which is critical to patient care, will be clean and appropriate for

Silicone application

Our US-based manufacturing facilities produce syringes to extremely tight tolerances.

The volume of silicone coating inside the syringe barrel is precisely controlled. This

facilitates optimal device performance and accurate fluid delivery.

Silicon is the lubricant inside the Bayer syringe that allows for smooth and exact

movement of the plunger which is the key component of the syringe

Not enough silicone may result in a lower flow rate which can affect contrast

delivery which can affect images, which can lead to additional scans and more

exposure to radiation

If the application is not precisely controlled, then silicone can be over- or under-

applied, impacting fluid delivery performance and the well being of patients.

layer of silicone for consistent and accurate injection performance under clinical

pressures.

Service warranties may be voided if it is determined that the injector malfunction

was caused by the use of non-Bayer disposables.

Service warranties may be void for injectors that malfunction due to generic syringe use. When generic syringe use leads to

contrast fouling of the injector head, the injector head must be replaced and the customer may be charged full price for the

replacement head. Figure 1 to the right shows an excerpt of the relevant Terms & Conditions in Canada’s DirectCARE Basic

When choosing contrast and saline syringes, you need to consider:

A malfunctioning syringe costs time and money as syringes that

In addition, we use only the highest quality components,

The utilization of non-Bayer products on your injector could
