Braun IV filters the overall complication rate could be reduced by 10%. Using IV filters also makes sense financially: the length of ICU stay can be decreased by almost one day \/ patient which represents a 23% drop – a substantial economic advantage because additional patients a year can be admitted. In a study, this led in turn to an increase in revenue because no patients had to be turned away due to lack of capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupor\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emembrane 0.2 µm, effective filtration area 10 cm\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emade out of Polyethersulfone (PES)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ehelps to prevent particulate contamination by retaining particles \u0026gt; 0.2 µm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ereduces microbiological contamination by retaining bacteria and fungi.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ereduces the risk of medication error.
