When the Connector Luer Lock is attached to the patient’s IV line, it becomes a permanent part of the IV line and should only be removed when the IV line is removed. PhaSeal’s Y-Site Connector (C80) is a permanently fastened, designated dry connection port for handling hazardous drugs. Please continue to follow your hospital’s policy for changing IV lines.
