INTRAOSSEOUS INFUSION SYSTEM
2
INDIcATIONS FOR USE:For intraosseous access anytime in which vascular access is difficult to obtain in emergent, urgent or medically necessary cases. ADUlTS PEDIATRIcS • Proximal humerus. • Proximal tibia. • Proximal tibia. • Distal tibia. • Distal tibia. Proximal humerus should only be used in patients whose landmarks can clearly be identified.
cONTRAINDIcATIONS FOR USE:• Fracture. • Excessive tissue and/or absence of adequate anatomical landmarks.• Infection at the area of insertion.• Previous, significant orthopedic procedure at the site (IO in past
48 hours, prosthetic limb or joint).
WARNINgS AND PREcAUTIONS: cAUTION: Use aseptic technique.cAUTION: Check skin adipose and muscle thickness before insertion. cAUTION: Increased dwell time may lead to increased complications.cAUTION: Use caution with chemotherapeutic agents.cAUTION: Monitor insertion site frequently for extravasation.cAUTION: 24 hour use only.cAUTION: Single use only. cAUTION: Do not recap Needle Sets or separated components. Use biohazard and sharps disposal precautions.cAUTION: Stylet and catheter are NOT MRI compatible.

1. clean insertion site per hospital protocol.
2. Remove needle safety cap.
IMPORTANT: Only handle Needle Set by the plastic hub.IMPORTANT: Control patient movement prior to and during procedure.
3. gently press Needle Set through skin until tip touches bone.
4. At least 5mm of the catheter must be visible.
5. Squeeze Driver trigger and apply gentle, steady pressure. Release trigger when sudden “give” or “pop” is felt, indicating entry into medullary space. Humerus site: To improve stability, needle should be advanced 2 cm after contact with bone. In adults, advance needle until catheter hub is against the skin.
5
IMPORTANT: Use gentle-steady pressure. DO NOT USE ExcESSIVE FORcE. Allow
Needle Set rotation and gentle downward pressure to penetrate bone. Note: If Driver stalls and will not penetrate the bone you may be applying too much downward pressure.
Note: In the unlikely event of a driver failure, remove the Power Driver, grasp the Needle Set by hand and advance the Needle Set into the medullary space while twisting the needle set.
6. Remove Power Driver and stylet; confirm catheter stability.
IMPORTANT: Confirm placement with at least three of the following four methods: • Stability of catheter • Ability to aspirate • Physiologic or pharmacologic changes • Adequate flow rate
7. Use of the EZ-Stabilizer is strongly recommended for the humerus site and for pediatrics.
8. Attach EZ-connect® extension set. Prior to attaching the EZ-Connect®: a. Ensure clamp is open. b. Prime set and purge air. c. Attach set firmly to catheter hub.
DO NOT ATTAcH A SYRINgE DIREcTlY TO THE EZ-IO cATHETER HUB ExcEPT WHEN DRAWINg BlOOD FOR lABORATORY ANAlYSIS (STABIlIZE NEEDlE SET).
9. Flush the EZ-IO catheter with normal saline (10ml for adults; use appropriate weight-based dose for smaller patients).

IMPORTANT: • Prior to flush, confirm placement as noted in Step 6.
• For patients responsive to pain, consider 2% lidocaine IO without preservatives or epinephrine (cardiac lidocaine) prior to flush. Follow institutional protocols/policy.
• Local anesthetics intended for the medullary space must be administered very slowly until desired anesthetic effect is achieved.
• NO FlUSH = NO FlOW. Failure to appropriately flush the EZ-IO catheter may result in limited or no flow. REPEAT FlUSH AS NEEDED.
• Once EZ-IO catheter has been flushed, administer fluids or medications as indicated.
cAUTION: Frequently monitor the insertion site for extravasation.
10. Apply EZ-IO wristband; apply dressing if needed. 11. To remove catheter from patient: Attach Luer-lock syringe. Rotate syringe and catheter clockwise while
using traction to withdraw catheter – DO NOT ROck OR BEND THE cATHETER DURINg REMOVAl.
Once removed, immediately place catheter in appropriate sharps container. Dress site as appropriate.
cAUTION: Do not leave the catheter inserted for longer than 24 hours.
