Patients benefit from the use of check valves when drugs with a particularly short half-life (e.g., catecholamines) are continually administered through a one-way valve or when an accidental retrograde bolus application must be prevented, as in the event of a rapid sequence induction and intubation. The lack of a check valve can prevent the administered drug from working in the intended manner resulting in potentially insufficient treatment and negative consequences for the patient. In order to ensure the highest level of patient safety while using check valves appropriate training of medical personnel is essential. In contrast, preventable dangers (e.g., infections, awareness) exist when safety measures are disregarded, including the re-use of medications, syringes or disposable materials in successive patients after having only exchanged the check valves. It is not clear how often this is practiced in German-speaking areas.
