Description

Product Specifications

  • Model Number: SYR-05S

  • Volume: 5 mL

  • Tip Type: Low-Dose Tip (LDT) (specifically engineered to eliminate the "dead space" volume common in standard ENFit connectors)

  • Sterility: Sterile (Individually blister-packed)

  • Graduation Markings: Clear, black markings in 0.2 mL increments

  • Materials: Polypropylene barrel, Polyisoprene synthetic rubber piston, and a purple plunger

  • Safety: Not made with natural rubber latex, BPA-free, and DEHP-free


Key Features

  • Precision Engineering: The Low-Dose Tip design ensures that the volume of medication delivered is accurate within +/- 10%. This is vital for pediatric and neonatal patients where the "moat" of a standard ENFit syringe could otherwise cause an overdose or underdose.

  • Global Safety Standard: As part of the ENFit system, this syringe is physically incompatible with IV lines (Luer locks). This "forced function" safety feature prevents accidental injections of enteral contents into the bloodstream.

  • Visual Safety Cues: The purple plunger is the industry-standard color for enteral-only devices, serving as a constant visual reminder to clinicians that the syringe is not for intravenous use.

  • Smooth Operation: Features a silicone-lubricated barrel and a flat-top plunger, providing the tactile control necessary for slow, steady manual administration.


Clinical Application

The 5 mL size is frequently used for:

  • Pediatric Medication: Administering liquid vitamins, antibiotics, or reflux medications.

  • Tube Maintenance: Performing water flushes for small-bore feeding tubes to maintain patency.

  • Syringe Pump Use: Validated for use in clinical syringe pumps (like Medfusion and BBraun) for the slow, continuous delivery of medications or nutrition.
