- 24-Gauge, 0.75-inch safety catheter designed for peripheral vascular access, particularly suited for difficult venous access (DIVA) or subcutaneous infusions (hypodermoclysis)
Uses
- Peripheral Vascular Access:
- Used for intravenous therapy, particularly in patients with fragile or difficult veins
- Subcutaneous Infusion (Hypodermoclysis):
- Indicated for fluid administration, pain management, and palliative care
- Blood Sampling:
- Can be used to obtain blood samples
Features
- Retracting Needle Safety Shield:
- Features an advanced, passive, telescoping safety mechanism that covers the needle, protecting clinicians from sharps injuries
- BD Vialon™ Biomaterial:
- Constructed from a unique, proprietary polyurethane biomaterial that softens in the vein, allowing for increased dwell times and reduced risk of mechanical phlebitis
- Integrated Design:
- Features preattached extension tubing with a Y-adapter, allowing for a closed system that minimizes blood exposure during insertion
- Flexible, Textured Wings:
- Designed for secure, low-profile tape-down and enhanced stabilization
- Removable PRN Adapter:
- Allows for the use of ISO-compliant needle-free connectors
- Color-Coded:
- 24-gauge (Yellow) for easy size identification
Benefits
- Enhanced Safety:
- The closed, integrated system and passive needle shielding significantly reduce the risk of needle-stick injuries and bloodborne pathogen exposure
- Improved Patient Comfort:
- The soft, flexible material and low-profile design enhance comfort and reduce movement at the insertion site
- Increased Dwell Time:
- Reduced complications (such as phlebitis) and improved stabilization can lead to fewer IV restarts
- Improved Success Rates:
- The design, particularly in 24-gauge, assists with difficult, fragile veins
- Versatility:
- The Y-adapter allows for simultaneous, multi-port access
