Some problems encountered by veterinary practices are:
Some giving sets are too short in length and tubing can kink easily, thus affecting the flow rate. The rubber cuff injection sites can leak, soaking an animal. Y-port injection sites were preferred. Injection sites were often in the wrong place, sometimes too near the luer lock end thus being covered up when fixing the giving sets. Fixed luer locks were difficult to attach, particularly with one hand. Many giving sets are sold with human not animal patients in mind. Cost effective small animal sets were not available witha drip rate of 60 drops per ml.

Key features of New Giving Set - above:
1.9 metres total length - tubing made of unique kink resistant material with softer tubing at the controller to allow for more accurate drip control - There are 2 injection sites (1 near the top for injection outside the cage, to avoid accessing the cage; the second towards the luer end but allowing for looping) - the luer end is both a push taper fit and swivel luer type in one for easier attachment - the controller is a high quality V track controller for better control and there is a venting cap for rigid containers - there is a male/female connector near the filter chamber to enable other parts to be added such as a 3 way stop, an extension set or one of our accurate controllers.

Technical information:
The tubing length from the chamber to the luer end contains when full approx. 7.5 milliletres.
Maximum flow rates in trials with fluids were 20ml per minute (using a 22g blue cannula and a vertical drop of 1500mm)
Minimum repeatable drip rate of 2-3 drips per minute or 2-3ml per hour.
Drip rate of 60 drops/ml.
