Selected answer:transfusion set
Explanation:
I am not quite sure what you ask about, I mean what is the intention. I guess that the administration kit is the set used to administer blood transfusion. Blood is in plastic bags. You puncture the bag with a special "needle", plastic blade attached to a plastic container, where blood flows forming something that we call a "lake", blood reservoir. This container is equipped with a filter, a mesh stopping particulate matters. Then it flows to a plastic tube and to an i.v. line. So the administration kit is everything between the bag and the i.v. line. If blood does not flow to the kit, either there is some malalignment or blood is to thick/clotted
