SafeBreak Vascular is a force-activated breakaway connector inserted between an IV catheter and administration tubing that automatically separates when tension exceeds 4.3 pounds, protecting the catheter from dislodgement while integrated valves on both separated ends prevent blood loss and medication leakage. SafeBreak reduced IV complications requiring restart by 44%, addressing the 46% IV failure rate caused by patient movement, tubing snags on door handles and bed rails, and inadvertent pulls. The device enables nurses to reconnect the IV line in minutes without needle sticks or catheter replacement, reducing patient pain, nurse workload, and hospital costs associated with IV restarts and potential complications like phlebitis, infiltration, and infection.
