These devices offer various features and functionalities, including closed vial access systems, syringe adapters, and transfer bags, all aimed at preventing drug leakage and minimizing exposure risks during drug preparation, administration, and disposal. Additionally, advancements in technology have led to the development of innovative CSTD solutions that enhance ease of use, compatibility with existing equipment, and overall safety.  
 
The increasing prevalence of cancer and other chronic conditions has fueled the demand for advanced cancer treatments, including chemotherapy. However, the handling of these potent drugs presents significant risks to healthcare workers, making the adoption of closed-system transfer devices an imperative measure. By enclosing the drug transfer process, CSTDs effectively mitigate the potential for accidental exposure, minimizing the adverse health effects associated with prolonged exposure to cytotoxic agents. 
 
 
Additionally, the heightened awareness of occupational hazards within the healthcare sector has played a crucial role in driving the adoption of CSTDs. Regulatory bodies and healthcare organizations worldwide have implemented stringent guidelines and protocols to safeguard the well-being of healthcare professionals. These measures have propelled the adoption of closed-system transfer devices, ensuring compliance with safety standards and mitigating potential liabilities.
