3M Curos Jet Disinfecting Caps

The 3M Curos Jet is a single-use disinfecting cap engineered to protect needleless connectors from contamination — a leading cause of central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs). Each cap holds a foam pad saturated with 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) that scrubs and disinfects the connector surface the moment it's twisted on, eliminating the variability that comes with manual "scrub the hub" wiping.

The 3M Curos Jet Disinfecting Cap (CFJ1-270) is a green, single-use cap designed specifically for needleless connectors. It disinfects in as little as one minute of contact and provides a passive barrier that keeps the connector protected for up to seven days as long as the cap stays in place. Because it's a passive device, it standardizes disinfection across every clinician on every shift — no timing, no guesswork, no missed hubs.

How clinicians use Curos Jet caps

After removing a cap and accessing the line, staff simply apply a fresh cap; there's no need to wait if the cap has been in place for the required contact time. The bright green color makes it easy to see at a glance whether a connector is protected, which supports compliance auditing and reduces the risk of an unprotected access point going unnoticed. Each cap is single-use and discarded after the connector is accessed, then replaced with a new one.

These caps are a core component of infection-prevention bundles in hospitals, infusion centers, dialysis units, and home-care settings where IV therapy is ongoing. They're compatible with most standard needleless connectors, but facilities should confirm connector compatibility before standardizing.
