Parenteral nutrition bag
Overview
The TPN bags are used for the preparation and storage of parenteral nutritional solutions before and during administration to patients.
Bags are characterized by the presence of connections for filling. Approximated graduated scale printed on the bag.
Availability to manufacture bag in different capacity and configurations. Our technical department is available to research and study flexible and innovative products in collaboration with the customer.
The finished product can be supplied as OEM, CE marked, or with FDA 510(k) clearance.

Products
All the following products are covered by CE cerificate. Images purely indicative of the product family
Female or male connector
Bag with female or male big bore connector, compatible with the most famous compounder on the market.
Three ways gravity set
Right solution for the filling of the bag by the gravity system. 3-way set with air vented spike.
One way set
Bag with just 1-way filling set and 1-way spike. Suitable for use with pump.
One way set with injection site
Bag with female or male big bore connector, compatible with the most famous compounder on the market.
Female or male luer lock
Bag with FLL or MLL, connector with small diameter suitable for use with syringe set.
Multi chambers with aluminium bar
Possibility to have 2 or 3 chambers in different configuration.
For a very fast activation of the chambers occurs to take hold of the free extremity of the plastic cord and pull against the aluminium bar and mix the solutions.
CAPACITY 2 CH. (ml):
500+100
1000+350
1500+500
2500+800
CAPACITY 3 CH. (ml):
500+150+150
500+300+300
500+550+550
500+750+750
1000+350+150
1000+750+350
Multi chambers with or without gravity set
The multi chambers bag is used giving the possibility to separate the lipid macronutrients from the remaining part of the hydroelectrolytic solution.
The activation of the chambers occurs by breaking the break-connector and the nutrients combine slowly to form an oil/ water emulsion so that it can be infused to the patient.
CAPACITY (ml):
650+150
1300+300
2000+400
3000+500
5000+300
Multilayer female or male connector
Parenteral nutrition solutions can contain amino acids and vitamins that require high barriers for oxygen, carbon dioxide and UV light.
Multilayer film offer these barrier functions and it is high transparent. The coextruded material contains an EVA fluid contact layer. Bag with female or male big bore connector, compatible with the most famous compounder on the market.
Multilayer with 6-way set
Parenteral nutrition solutions can contain amino acids and vitamins that require high barriers for oxygen, carbon dioxide and UV light. Multilayer film offer these barrier functions and it is high transparent. 6-ways filling set with drip chamber and filter.
Multilayer UV bag
Extended UV light to protect TPN ingredient sensitive for oxidation. Especially recommended for pediatric use.
