SafeBreak Vascular is the only breakaway device for IV lines clinically proven to reduce multiple IV complications.1 When a harmful force is placed on an IV line, SafeBreak intentionally separates to remove the damaging force from the IV line and protect the patient's vascular access. Upon separation, valves on both ends of the device close, preventing medicine spills from the pump and blood loss from the patient. The separated device causes the IV pump to alarm, notifying the nursing staff to check on the patient. To replace SafeBreak, each component is unthreaded from the line, a new sterile device is installed, and the patient's infusion is continued. SafeBreak Vascular is cleared for all vascular lines down to two weeks of age– delivering better outcomes for patients, efficiency for nurses, and cost savings for hospitals alike.1
Larry Hayes, Lineus Medical's Chief Commercial Officer, stated, "This agreement marks another significant milestone in Lineus Medical's international growth. By partnering with DIMA MedTech, we are beginning our commercialization strategy in Europe and continuing to build momentum for broader global adoption. DIMA MedTech's local expertise and established network make them the right partner to drive commercial success throughout Italy."
Vance Clement, CEO of Lineus Medical, stated, "Expanding into Italy is a meaningful step forward in our mission to remove the "pains" associated with medical lines. First came European regulatory clearance for our product, and next is the establishment of a robust European distribution network. DIMA MedTech is a terrific distributor in Italy and our first in Europe."
