The Neurax® system is a specialised connector system, moulded from polycarbonate plastic, which can be glued, welded, or moulded onto specific small-diameter tubular medical products, typically needles and syringes, drug containers and flexible fluid-conducting tubes. The connector system enhances the safety aspects of these products by being incompatible with the standard 'luer' connector.

Whilst the Neurax® system components are all fully-compatible with each other, their configuration ensures that any attempts to make a connection between a male or a female Neurax® and either a 'luer', or any larger medical connector, will result in an incomplete seal, thwarting attempts at establishing a fluid-tight pathway.

The Neurax® system has been designed to be bonded onto medical equipment used in performing epidural & spinal anaesthesia, and also the administration of intrathecal chemotherapy (an injection into the spinal fluid).

The Neurax® modified product are supplied in 'kit' form, with all the components included, and supplied sterile-wrapped. This increases the safety and value of the product.
