- An 18-gauge standard access device designed for high-flow clinical applications where an integrated safety mechanism is not required
Uses
- High-Volume Infusion:
- Frequently used for rapid fluid resuscitation, large-volume medication delivery, and blood transfusions due to its robust 18-gauge size
- Arterial Line Initiation:
- Trusted by clinicians for establishing arterial lines and gaining reliable I.V. access in critical care
- Emergency & Surgical Care:
- Suited for trauma, emergency, and surgical departments where fast venous access and high flow rates are essential
- Broad Care Environments:
- Used across hospitals, outpatient clinics, and home care for diverse patient needs
Features
- 18 Gauge x 1-1/4 Inch:
- A standard large-bore size, color-coded green for instant identification
- "J"-Point Needle Design:
- A precision-sharpened needle that allows clinicians to easily feel the vein entry, facilitating successful first-stick attempts
- High Flow Rate:
- Features a thin-wall catheter design that provides a high flow rate of approximately 110 mL/min, often allowing for the use of a smaller gauge device without sacrificing performance
- FEP Polymer Construction:
- Made from flexible, medical-grade FEP polymer for smooth advancement and durability during extended placement
- Radiopaque:
- Entirely visible under X-ray, allowing for quick verification of the catheter's position
- Straight Hub:
- A standard configuration without additional ports or wings, prioritizing a small footprint for routine therapy
Benefits
- Workflow Efficiency:
- Universal green color-coding and clear packaging (50/box, 4 boxes/case) help streamline supply management and identification in fast-paced setting
- Reliable Performance:
- The thin-wall design and J-point needle ensure consistent results for critical interventions like blood transfusions
- Patient Stability:
- Constructed from biocompatible materials designed to reduce the risk of phlebitis and thrombosis, allowing for uninterrupted treatment
- Secure Connection:
- Features a secure locking mechanism to prevent accidental dislodgement and ensure a stable connection to standard IV equipment
