Chemfort® Syringe Adaptor
Chemfort® Syringe Adaptor is a Closed System Transfer Device (CSTD) that mechanically prohibits the release of drugs, including antineoplastic and hazardous drugs, in vapor, aerosol or liquid form during preparation, reconstitution, compounding and administration, minimizing exposure of microbial and airborne contaminants into the drug or fluid path for up to 7 days. The Chemfort® CSTD is designed to meet the highest safety standards in order to prevent drug exposure for both healthcare professionals and the patient.
NIOSH has defined a Closed System Transfer Device (CSTD) as “a drug transfer device that mechanically prohibits the transfer of environmental contaminants into the system and the escape of the hazardous drug or vapor concentrations outside the system”.
