CLAVE™ was introduced in 1992 as the first one-piece, closed, NeedleFree connector and is currently the Number One connector sold worldwide.

It is the unique design of the CLAVE™ that ensures compliance with NeedleFree policies because of its passive technology which cannot accept a needle.

The CLAVE™ requires no additional components or adapters to access and requires no end cap for sterility.

The CLAVE™ is also a microbiologically closed system which helps protect the patient's catheter from contamination that can otherwise lead to bloodstream infections.
