HSE 27385 Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) Invitation For the Supply of NRFit™ Consumable Products

Description

This DPS Invitation has been prepared for the purpose of providing information to economic operators interested in participating in a public procurement process for the establishment of a Dynamic Purchasing System (hereafter the DPS) for the supply of NRFit™ Consumable Products which comply with ISO 80369 Standard (hereafter the Goods). In 2010, a new international safety standard for small bore connectors (ISO 80369) was developed by an international group of experts from 31 countries. This included a dedicated connector for neuraxial (spinal) applications (NRFit™ ISO 80369-6) defined as “those for administering medications to neuraxial sites, wound infiltration anaesthesia delivery and other regional anaesthesia procedures, or to monitor or remove cerebrospinal fluid for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes”. The connectors designed under this standard are intentionally incompatible with other connectors used in different organ systems to prevent dangerous wrong route connections.
