Carefusion 777022 - Infant Flow LP Bonnet Size 4 (3032 cm), Gold Edging, Soft Cotton, Single-Use for nCPAP Stability, 10/CS
The CareFusion 777022 Infant Flow LP Bonnet, Size 4, is a medical-grade, soft-fabric headgear designed to secure the Infant Flow LP nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) system in neonatal respiratory therapy. Developed specifically for premature and term infants, this bonnet provides gentle but firm support for holding nasal prongs or masks in place, reducing movement and ensuring uninterrupted respiratory support. Size 4 fits head circumferences between 30 and 32 centimeters and is marked with a gold edge for instant size recognition in fast-paced neonatal care environments.
The bonnet is made of breathable, hypoallergenic cotton fabric that reduces skin irritation, improves comfort, and ensures patient compliance during therapy. It includes a reinforced central attachment area where the generator or interface equipment can be securely positioned without the risk of displacement. Designed for single-patient use, this product ensures high levels of hygiene and helps prevent cross-contamination in sensitive NICU and pediatric care settings.
Key Benefits:
Precise Fit for Size 4 (3032 cm): Ensures optimal head coverage and security for infants within this measurement range, supporting effective therapy without constriction.
Secure Interface Support: The integrated central patch keeps the nCPAP generator or prongs in place, minimizing the need for readjustments and maintaining consistent airway pressure.
Soft, Skin-Friendly Fabric: Constructed from premium cotton to protect fragile neonatal skin from pressure marks or abrasions.
Color-Coded Sizing System: The gold edging quickly identifies the bonnet size, simplifying inventory and selection for clinical staff.
Improved Clinical Efficiency: The bonnets design reduces therapy interruptions due to mask or prong slippage, allowing caregivers to focus on overall patient care.
Latex-Free and Hypoallergenic: Safe for use with all neonates, including those with known sensitivities.
Compatibility and Applications:
This bonnet is specifically engineered for compatibility with the CareFusion Infant Flow LP nCPAP system and associated nasal prongs or masks. Its flexible yet supportive structure is ideal for stabilizing non-invasive respiratory equipment, helping maintain effective therapy without the need for constant repositioning.
Clinical use cases include:
Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs): Supporting premature infants with underdeveloped lungs or respiratory distress.
Post-extubation Support: Providing ongoing airway stability after mechanical ventilation.
Treatment of Apnea of Prematurity (AOP): Delivering gentle, continuous positive pressure to stimulate breathing.
Transport or Intra-facility Transfer: Ensuring secure respiratory support during movement or handoff between departments.
Usage Guidelines:
Sizing: Measure the infants head circumference. Size 4 is recommended for infants with head sizes between 3032 cm.
Application: Place the bonnet over the infants head with the central pad aligned at the crown. Make sure the prong or generator slot is centered for optimal support.
Adjustment: Securely fasten the bonnet using soft hook-and-loop or strap components, ensuring a snug fit without causing skin blanching or pressure.
Monitoring: Inspect the bonnet placement regularly. Check for any skin irritation or slippage. Adjust or replace as needed.
Post-Use: Dispose of the bonnet in accordance with clinical waste guidelines. This is a single-use item and should not be reused.
