We take care of the “small” patients

CODAN offers a variety of administration systems for our little ones in neonatology and paediatrics. These patients are often dependent on parenteral nutrition (TPN) with accompanying medication. In addition, low flow rates and a minimal infusion fluid intake have to be considered during treatment.
Due to their low body weight and immature immune system, they are particularly susceptible to infections.

Since you often only have one patient access for treatments available and the fluid balance of the patient must be constantly monitored, the use of complex systems is indispensable.

With our solutions developed in collaboration with specialists in neonatology/paediatrics under the strictest hygiene guidelines, we help you to minimise risks that may occur during treatment.
