EBME Forums Forums Management Professional Issues BD Syringe pumps - Alaris CC

Apparently, BD are not selling the CC Guardrails Plus syringe pumps any more.

I asked for a quote for 30 due to expansions in ITU, and the rep basically avoided my request and was trying to push for the trust to replace them, all 200 with their new range in which is identical to Braun (medcaptin)

Has anyone else had any issues getting these?

We had to replace our CCs a couple of years or so ago. The CC has gone out of production (based on the GH MK3 I believe). We replaced them with the Nexus CC which is an updated version.

Struggling to get those too.

There seems to be a bit of confusion with the whole "Nexus" range as there are two versions. Like you say there is the Nexus range made by Medcaptin and the more familiar Alaris Nexus range. The Alaris Nexus is basically the older GH/CC but instead of being blue its now orange, and the same for the older GP models is now orange instead of blue. The Medcaptin range is sleeker and very similar to the Braun Space models.
When liaising with BD make sure you are both on the same page as to what Nexus range you are discussing. They are no longer selling the GH but instead selling the CC which covers both traditional Neonate CC and adult GH. They can be run with or without the side mounted pressure sensor. Hope this is of some help.

We have the Alaris Nexus CCs - they are most definitely orange!

Many thanks.

They are still ignoring me and if we don't get the order on before the end of March.

Someone else gets some new business.
