We know that some users use hemostatic forceps to unlock the plugs. In addition, we learn that this is being used in several patients. This poses a high risk of infection. The advantage of Medikey is that it is one-time and thus avoids contagion risk. It is also made of environmentally friendly polypropylene and is designed so that it does not grasp the skin of the patient. It is easy to handle with one hand grip and fits all known plugs to various peripheral and central vein catheters.

Statement from anesthetic nurse

Medikey is a small plastic key specifically designed to open / loosen the plug on the pvk. Inside the key's circle, there are small ticks that grip around the plug. By tightening the grip around the ends of Medikey while turning around, the plug will loosen. No use of forceps that twist, scissors or anything else. Medikey's design makes it easy to enter the intravenous hose as needed. Medikey is a CE-branded, unilaterally disposable product. Cheap in purchases, always at hand and safe to use.

I have been lucky and have tested Medikey, and I just have to say that it is brilliant. It is designed specifically for the purpose and does the job effortlessly. The principle is simple and the use becomes very simple as well. It has multiple purposes and does not cause harm to the patient or equipment. Because it's a one-time key, there's also no risk of transmission of infection. I don't want to be without Medikey when I'm at work.
