B. Braun ADDitIV IV Administration Sets

The B. Braun ADDitIV line covers gravity IV administration sets built for reliable, controlled fluid delivery in hospitals, infusion clinics, and skilled nursing settings. Every set in this collection is a B. Braun product, so clinicians can standardize on a single family and know exactly how the roller clamp, slide clamp, and injection ports will behave from one line to the next.

The main variables buyers weigh here are drip rate and priming volume. Macrodrip sets deliver 15 drops/mL for higher-volume fluid replacement, while microdrip sets run 60 drops/mL for precise, low-flow administration where accuracy matters most. The NF1251 is a sterile 15 drops/mL set with 115-inch tubing and a 21 mL priming volume — a good fit when longer reach and larger-volume delivery are needed. For microdrip control, the V1448 (60 drops/mL, 15 mL priming, 87-inch tubing) and the NF1290 primary set (60 drops/mL, 17 mL priming, 88-inch tubing) offer tighter flow regulation.

Each set includes three ports plus dual clamp control for flow adjustment. Two of these sets — the NF1251 and NF1290 — feature the SafeLine Split Septum Port, a needle-free access point that reduces needlestick risk and simplifies secondary medication access, an important consideration for facilities working toward safer injection practices.

When selecting a set, match the drip rate to your therapy, confirm the tubing length reaches from pump or pole to patient, and note the priming volume so you can account for it during setup. Gravity sets like these require no pump, making them practical for straightforward fluid and medication administration.
