In the world of medicine, technological innovations continue to constantly improve the quality of patient care. Among these innovations, the dual chamber bags for total parenteral nutrition, stand out from previous proposals, as a fundamental advance in the field of nutritional therapy. These bags are composed of two distinct compartments and are revolutionizing the way in which the dietary needs of patients who cannot take nutrients orally or intestinally are addressed, such as patients with serious gastrointestinal diseases, intestinal absorption problems, oncology patients and critically ill patients in intensive care. Overall, this is a non-negligible number of subjects that depend totally on clinical sustenance.
Some reasons why these bags are transforming the quality of treatments:
A Tailored Solution for Dietary Needs
One of the most significant features of dual-chamber bags for total parenteral nutrition is the ability to provide a highly personalized nutritional solution. Doctors can precisely tailor the quantity and composition of nutrients to meet the specific needs of each patient. This level of personalization is essential to optimize administration to patients, taking into account factors such as age, weight, medical conditions and individual caloric needs.
Separate compartments for greater safety
The ratio of the dual-chamber bags, as can be imagined, is based on the separation of the nutrients in two distinct environments. A solution of amino acids (fundamental for protein intake) is usually infused in the upper chamber, while in the lower chamber there is a mixture of lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and electrolytes. This separation is essential to prevent unwanted chemical reactions between nutrients, ensuring that patients receive safe and effective nutritional therapy and reduces the risk of cross-contamination between nutrients.
Caloric Precision and Nutrient Balance
Thanks to the ability to separate nutrients, these bags allow for precise control of calorie and nutrient balance. This is especially important for patients with strict dietary needs or particular metabolic conditions. Doctors can precisely regulate calorie intake, ratio between proteins, carbohydrates and lipids, ensuring that intake is optimal for each individual patient.
Safe Administration and Constant Monitoring
The dual-chamber bags are designed to be easily connected to infusion systems, which are designed for the controlled administration of total parenteral nutritional therapy. Administration is via central or peripheral venous access and is closely monitored by healthcare professionals. This constant monitoring is essential to adapt the therapy according to the patient’s response and his evolving condition.
The production of dual-chamber bags for the medical and pharmaceutical sector requires a significant commitment to quality, safety and regulatory compliance, and INFRA, every day, is committed to providing its “InfraTPN™ Dual” putting these aspects first.
Our highly performing consists of a two-chamber EVA bag, equipped with a filling set, free of phthalates and latex which can be equipped with a comfortable handle.
It is an efficient product, systematically adapted to the sensitive applications and uses to which it is dedicated; highly adaptable: among other options, it is possible to create a personalized print and choose the capacity that best suits individual needs; innovative, because it is the result of our technologically advanced R&D activities, which are one of the fundamental pillars of our corporate strategy; stable, because it retains its performance, safety and effectiveness characteristics within the specified limits, for a defined period of time, under the expected conditions of storage and use. Furthermore, specific stability tests are conducted and the product is certified, therefore, it follows all the guidelines of the European regulatory bodies.
In conclusion, the dual-chamber bags for total parenteral nutrition represent an important evolution in the care of patients with complex dietary needs. Their ability to personalize, safety and precise control of nutrients contribute to improving the quality of life of patients, helping them to recover and improve their health conditions. These bags are an example of how innovation continues to impact with virtuous developments on the field of medicine, providing healthcare professionals with new tools to increase the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions.
