3M™ Curos™ Disinfecting Caps for Needleless Connectors

What are Curos Disinfecting Caps?

Curos disinfecting caps for needleless connectors are a simple and effective cleaning device to thoroughly disinfect and protect your needle-free device for up to seven days.

 

If you’re having ongoing intra-venous (IV) treatment at home, both you and your healthcare professional need to know that your line is clean and safe to use. If your needle-free device is not cleaned effectively, harmful bacteria could enter your bloodstream and cause infection, which could delay your recovery.

 

“Studies have shown Curos reduces central line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) by 86%”
