Hi all,
Since Vyaire is going to be leaving the syringe business, I am once again on the hunt for a BG syringe. Does anyone have any info on 1cc luer lock hep syringes out there. I know the Monovette, but I didn't know if anyone had any other suggestions. Since we are a pediatric hospital the 1cc is important and the nurse say the pressure behind the ports blow slip tips off, so the 1cc luer lock is my unicorn.
As always, thanks in advance :)

We have forever been using Smith Medical Arterial Blood Sampling Kit 1cc Reference number 4041-2 CHC# 1542. This is a slip tip. They went on backorder this past spring and we couldn't get their luer lock either. We validated the Medline Arterial Line Syringe 1cc: part number 3100-25 just in case but I don't think we ever had to get any in. Also a slip tip. Both of these have a luer lock version but they were in much shorter supply than the slip tip at the time.
Our nursing staff would like to switch to a luer lock but nobody ever make a big deal about it so that will come way in
the future when the supply chain improves.
