What Are the Key Benefits of Using the Flovac Liner System?
The DeVilbiss VacuAide Disposable Liner System by Flovac improves upon hygiene and infection control by using fully sealed liners which are very unlikely to spill or leak. It facilitates the safe and easy operation of medical suction systems by enabling potentially infected materials to be suctioned, collected, transported, handled and disposed of whilst reducing the risks to the carer and/or operator.
Features of the DeVilbiss VacuAide Disposable Liners
To maximise hygiene, safety and convenience these liners come with the following features:
- Hermetically sealed container – contributes to improved infection control and facilitates the safe and hygienic collection of fluids
- Integrated hydrophobic bacteria filter – helps to prevent overflow and bacteria from escaping the container and is supplied fresh with each new liner
- Colour coordinated connectors and clearly marked labels – eliminate the risk of incorrect setup
- Single patient use – maintains hygiene without the need for difficult and expensive sterilisation procedures
- Benefits both practitioner and patient – reduces the risks to carers and operators of suction machines, as well as preventing contamination between patients
- One meter fall integrity – helps to stop small accidents form becoming bigger problems
- Fully disposable – for ease of use and unparalleled levels of hygiene
What Is the Capacity of a Flovac Disposable Liner?
Each VacuAide Disposable Liner has a one-litre capacity. This makes it ideal for use with the one litre DeVilbiss Autoclavable Jar.
How Does This Liner System Work?
This liner system consists of individual liners designed for single patient use. Each liner is hermetically sealed; this increases infection control and reduces the risk of contamination, allowing the user to safely collect potentially infected material. It can then be safely suctioned, collected, transported, handled and disposed of whilst reducing risks to the carer and operator.
A built in hydrophobic filter is fixed to the lid of the liner. As soon as liquid touches the filter, due to reaching the maximum one litre capacity of the liner, the filter will stop suction ensuring that overflow does not take place. Since the filter is integral to the sealed liner, it is automatically replaced with each new liner, for the very highest standards in hygiene.
Which Devices Are Compatible with the Flovac Disposable Liners?
This liner pack is compatible with the DeVilbiss VacuAide 7325 Portable Suction Machine.
Is Each Flovac Liner for Single Patient Use?
The Flovac liners themselves, the 26cm tubing and the yellow male inline connectors are all single patient use items. However, the canister jar that holds the liners is reusable and can be used with multiple patients. This external jar can be autoclaved at 121ºC for 15 minutes, for 30 cycles.
Do I Need to Change Filters?
The hydrophobic filter is built into the liner, so there is no need to change the filter. The liner should be thrown away when it becomes full or between patients.
How Do I Dispose of the Liners?
Once used these liners need to be kept sealed and then be disposed of. They can be disposed of using your hospital or clinic's standard medical waste disposal procedures. Between collection and disposal the effluent should never leave the liner.
