Equashield | A Proven Closed System

Choose a truly closed system that provides the necessary protection for healthcare workers handling hazardous drugs

• PROVEN as the only closed system to prevent syringe plunger contamination and accidental disconnection - standard syringes and their plungers accept contamination with almost every use and may cause hazardous drug (HD) spills with accidental removal of plunger*.

• RESTRICTS the escape of HD and vapor due to a unique encapsulated syringe with an internal sterile air chamber and closed pressure equalization system*.

• ADHERES to all NIOSH Protocols and definitions of a CSTD: USP <800>, FDA ONB, ISOPP, ONS*.

• PREVENTS disconnection of syringe connector due to a welded connection point that comes as a fully assembled ready to use Syringe Unit for ease of use*.

• NEEDLESAFE fully encased needles and dry connection membranes eliminate HD residue exposure*, needle sticks, and prevent microbial ingress for up to 7 days**.
