Advantages:

• Closed, needle–free access during syringe bolus dose administration and IV tubing change.
• Removes risk of blood spillage.
• Eliminates risk of air embolism.
• Different coloured hub/clamp to help identify different infusion lines.
• Anti–return valves prevent reflux of fluids/drugs.
• Bionector may be disinfected using most antiseptic solutions, e.g. 70% alcohol.
• Equipped with freely rotating male Luer–locking collar allowing an easy connection to the IV catheter's female Luer. This reduces the risk of mechanical phlebitis and its associated complications.
