IV Hoods, or portable clean room hoods, provide a positive pressure enclosure to protect the product from cross-contamination
of airborne particulates. IV Hoods supply reduced particulate air to the workspace creating an ISO Class 5 cleanroom environment suitable for IV Bag preparation. Healthcare professionals should prepare IV bags in a sterile environment in order to produce the highest quality product as well as safeguard patients’ health and Safety.
IV preparation entails compounding medication, vitamins, and supplements into an intravenous fluid to be supplied directly to the bloodstream. IV or infusion therapy has grown in popularity for outpatient services and offers immediate therapeutic responses to treat a variety of medical conditions.
To protect the product and patient, medical professionals must follow best practices for IV preparation. The FDA does not regulate IV bag preparation but suggests following the USP 797 guidelines. USP 797 specifies best practices as following aseptic techniques and utilizing a vertical laminar flow hood that furnishes ISO Class 5 clean air. IV Hoods, or laminar flow hoods, offer a solution for safe IV Preparation.
The 30” Wide IV Hood creates a clean work enclosure for IV bag preparation through a positive pressure or vertical laminar flow pattern. A vertical laminar flow pattern forms when the system draws in ambient air through the dual stage filtration system supplying clean air to IV Hood. The dual stage filtration system contains a pre-filter and choice of the main filter – HEPA filter which offers up to 99.97% efficiency on particles down to 0.3 microns or ULPA filter which maintains up to 99.995% efficiency on particles down to 0.12 microns. The 30” Wide IV Hood features a stainless steel IV bag rod for convenient and sterile temporary storage.
