Curos disinfecting caps lock onto needleless valves and connectors for quick and reliable disinfection; can be left in place to clean and protect for up to 7 days.

Consistent use of Curos disinfecting caps on I.V. needleless connectors is associated with decreased CLABSI. Curos caps are alcohol-containing caps that twist onto ports for disinfection and protection. Each Curos cap contains 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) which bathes the surface of the port and disinfects it in 1 minute.

Suggested applications
  • Disinfect needleless connectors before line access
  • Curos disinfecting caps may be used in the home or a healthcare facility
  • 3 year shelf life. Please refer to product expiration date
  • Use only on needleless connectors. Do not use on open female luers
