BD 2652234 - PowerLoc PAK Safety Infusion Set, 22G x 0.75", Without Y-Injection Site, 5/CS (Temp Sensitive; Non-Returnable) (Continental US Only)

The BD 2652234 PowerLoc PAK Safety Infusion Set is a sterile, single-use port-access solution designed for accessing compatible surgically implanted vascular ports. The set features a 22-gauge non-coring needle with a 0.75-inch length and is configured without a Y-injection site, providing a streamlined direct fluid pathway for compatible infusion and vascular-access procedures.

The PowerLoc system is designed to support the administration of compatible fluids and medications, blood specimen collection, implanted port flushing, and power injection through appropriately rated vascular access systems. The 22-gauge configuration provides a smaller needle profile for applications where moderate flow capability is appropriate.

The 0.75-inch needle length is designed for implanted ports positioned relatively close to the skin surface. Proper needle-length selection helps support complete septum access, stable positioning, effective dressing application, and appropriate patient comfort.

The corresponding 22-gauge x 0.75-inch PowerLoc configuration uses approximately 8-inch tubing with an approximate priming volume of 0.3 mL. Because this model does not include a Y-injection site, it provides a direct fluid pathway without an integrated secondary medication or fluid-access point.

An integrated safety mechanism is designed to help reduce accidental needlestick exposure during port deaccessing. As the needle is withdrawn into the base, the safety shield covers the needle point and locks it into place, providing tactile, audible, and visual confirmation of safety activation.

The PowerLoc platform features a compact, low-profile, lightweight design that supports dressing application, site visibility, and routine patient care. The PAK presentation provides an organized, all-in-one solution intended to simplify the multi-step sterile preparation process for implanted port access. BD 2652234 is supplied five sets per case.

Compatibility and Applications

The BD 2652234 PowerLoc PAK Safety Infusion Set is intended for use with compatible surgically implanted vascular access ports designed to accept non-coring port-access needles.

Potential clinical applications include medication administration, antibiotic therapy, hydration, selected chemotherapy treatments, parenteral nutrition, blood specimen collection, implanted port flushing, long-term infusion therapy, and compatible contrast-media delivery during diagnostic imaging procedures.

The 22-gauge configuration may be selected when a smaller needle profile and moderate flow capability meet the requirements of the prescribed therapy. Product selection should consider medication or fluid viscosity, desired flow rate, implanted port specifications, infusion equipment, power-injection requirements, and professional clinical judgment.

The 0.75-inch needle length is generally suitable for implanted ports positioned relatively close to the skin surface. A needle that is too short may not completely access the port septum, while unnecessary additional needle length may affect stability, securement, and dressing placement.

Because BD 2652234 does not include a Y-injection site, it provides a direct pathway without an integrated secondary access point. This configuration may be appropriate when the planned therapy uses a single primary connection and does not require intermittent medication or fluid administration through a Y-site.

For power injection, the implanted port, access needle, tubing, connectors, extension components, and every other component within the complete fluid pathway must be appropriately rated for the intended procedure. The lowest-rated component determines the maximum allowable pressure and flow rate.

Compatibility should be confirmed with the exact implanted port model, septum design, tissue depth, prescribed therapy, infusion pump, power injector, connector system, dressing materials, and institutional vascular-access procedures.

Usage Guidelines

The BD 2652234 should be used only by healthcare professionals trained and authorized to access implanted vascular ports. Current manufacturer instructions, aseptic technique, institutional procedures, and the implanted port manufacturer's directions should be followed throughout the procedure.

• Confirm the patient's identity, prescribed therapy, implanted port type, and power-injection status when applicable.
• Assess the location and depth of the implanted port before selecting the 0.75-inch needle.
• Verify that the 22-gauge configuration provides appropriate flow capability for the intended therapy or imaging procedure.
• Confirm that a configuration without a Y-injection site is suitable for the planned clinical workflow.
• Inspect the sterile package for punctures, moisture, damage, contamination, or compromised integrity.
• Prepare the implanted port site according to institutional skin-antisepsis and sterile-access procedures.
• Prime the complete infusion pathway with an approved solution using aseptic technique.
• Remove air from the fluid pathway before accessing the implanted port.
• Stabilize the implanted port and insert the non-coring needle perpendicular to the port septum using an approved technique.
• Advance the needle carefully until appropriate access to the port reservoir is achieved.

• After therapy, flush and lock the implanted port according to the prescribed protocol.
• Stabilize the port while withdrawing the needle and activating the safety mechanism.
• Confirm the tactile, audible, and visual indicators of needle lockout before further handling.
• Dispose of the used device immediately in an approved sharps container.

Stop the procedure and assess the vascular-access system if unexpected resistance occurs during flushing, appropriate blood return cannot be obtained when expected, the patient experiences unusual discomfort, or swelling, leakage, displacement, or another abnormality develops at the port site.

Certifications and Safety Standards

The BD 2652234 PowerLoc PAK Safety Infusion Set is intended for professional medical use within established vascular-access, infusion-therapy, diagnostic imaging, infection-prevention, and occupational safety programs.

The device should be incorporated into facility procedures addressing implanted port assessment, hand hygiene, sterile preparation, skin antisepsis, port access, infusion administration, dressing management, power injection, port deaccessing, and sharps disposal.

The integrated safety mechanism is designed to help protect healthcare professionals during needle removal. As the needle enters the base during deaccessing, a safety shield covers the needle point and the needle locks into place. Tactile feel, an audible click, and visual confirmation help verify lockout.

The safety feature supports needlestick-prevention practices but does not replace appropriate clinician training, personal protective equipment, safe sharps handling, exposure-control procedures, or immediate disposal in an approved sharps container.

The non-coring needle is designed for accessing compatible implanted vascular port septa while helping minimize unnecessary septum damage during appropriate use. Needle gauge and length should be selected according to patient anatomy, tissue depth, implanted port specifications, prescribed therapy, and required flow characteristics.

Healthcare organizations should review current manufacturer documentation for applicable FDA status, UDI information, sterilization method, material composition, natural rubber latex status, DEHP information, shelf life, pressure limitations, flow-rate specifications, warnings, precautions, and other technical or regulatory requirements.

Comparison with Competitors

Compared with conventional implanted port needles without integrated safety technology, the BD PowerLoc system incorporates a mechanism that covers and locks the needle point after deaccessing. This can help reduce accidental needlestick exposure during needle removal, handling, transport, and disposal.

Compared with PowerLoc configurations containing a Y-injection site, BD 2652234 provides a direct fluid pathway without an integrated secondary access point. This may simplify the tubing configuration when secondary medication or fluid administration through a Y-site is not required.

Compared with non-power-injectable port-access devices, the PowerLoc platform supports compatible power-injection procedures when used with an appropriately rated implanted port and complete vascular-access system.

Compared with 19-gauge and 20-gauge PowerLoc configurations, the 22-gauge needle provides a smaller external diameter but lower maximum power-injection flow capability. Compatible 22-gauge configurations support up to 2 mL per second, while larger-gauge PowerLoc options may support higher flow requirements.

Compared with 1-inch and 1.5-inch access needles, the 0.75-inch configuration offers a lower access profile for implanted ports positioned closer to the skin surface. Correct needle-length selection supports complete septum access, stability, securement, and effective dressing placement.

Compared with loose individual port-access supplies, the PAK presentation provides an organized solution for the multi-step sterile preparation process. This can help simplify supply preparation and support procedural consistency across clinical teams.

Alternative safety infusion sets may differ in gauge, needle length, power-injection capability, tubing length, priming volume, safety activation method, Y-site availability, included procedural components, and package quantity. BD 2652234 combines a 22-gauge, 0.75-inch non-coring needle with a direct no-Y-site configuration, integrated safety technology, power-injection capability, and organized PAK presentation.
