February 26, 2026
Expanded agreement provides members with streamlined access to innovative IV protection technology
BRENTWOOD, TN — Alliant Purchasing, a leading national group purchasing organization (GPO), today announced the addition of Lineus Medical’s SafeBreak® Vascular to its contract portfolio. This agreement expands access to the breakaway IV technology for Alliant’s network of more than 280 hospitals and over 68,000 non-acute healthcare facilities across all 50 states.
SafeBreak Vascular is a breakaway device for IV lines designed to reduce IV complications. When harmful force is applied to an IV line, the device intentionally separates to remove damaging tension and help protect the patient’s IV site. Upon separation, valves on both ends close to prevent medication spills from the pump and blood loss from the patient. By helping reduce IV restarts and associated complications, SafeBreak supports improved patient experience, nursing efficiency, and cost management.
“Alliant is committed to delivering value-focused solutions that improve both clinical and operational outcomes for our members,” said Kary LeBlanc, Chief Operating Officer. “SafeBreak Vascular represents the type of innovative technology that enhances patient safety while supporting supply chain efficiency. We are pleased to add Lineus Medical to our portfolio and provide our members with simplified access to this solution.”
Through this agreement, Alliant members can procure SafeBreak Vascular through a streamlined contracting pathway, helping healthcare organizations evaluate and adopt the technology as part of their IV protocols.
“We’re proud to partner with Alliant to expand access to SafeBreak across its national network,” said Vance Clement, CEO of Lineus Medical. “This agreement makes it easier for thousands of healthcare facilities to implement technology designed to reduce IV complications and improve patient care.”
