- A sterile, single-use, winged blood collection set featuring an ultra-thin 25-gauge, 3/4-inch needle specifically designed to minimize patient discomfort during blood draws or short-term infusions, particularly for those with small or fragile veins
Uses
- Blood Collection:
- Primarily for drawing blood specimens from patients, especially those who are challenging to access with larger needles, such as infants, children, the elderly, or patients with difficult veins
- Intravenous Infusion:
- The set can be used for the short-term administration of IV fluids or medications
- Laboratory Specimen Handling:
- The Luer adapter allows for a secure, closed-system connection to blood collection tubes and other devices, ensuring safe handling of specimens
Features
- Ultra-Thin Wall Needle:
- It has a 25-gauge (orange color-coded) and 3/4-inch needle, with a thin-wall design to reduce patient discomfort during insertion
- Integrated Safety Shield:
- A prominent safety mechanism allows for immediate coverage of the needle after use to prevent accidental needlestick injuries
- An audible "click" confirms the shield is locked in place
- Flexible Wings and Tubing:
- The large, flexible wings provide stability and control during venipuncture, while the 12-inch, soft, kink-resistant, transparent tubing allows for flexibility and clear visualization of blood flow

- Sterile and Single-Use:
- Each set is sterile and individually packaged, ready for immediate use without assembly
Benefits
- Minimized Patient Discomfort:
- The fine gauge of the needle helps reduce pain and anxiety, making procedures less stressful, especially for sensitive patient populations
- Improved Safety:
- The audible locking safety shield provides confidence to the user that the sharp is safely contained, minimizing the risk of occupational injury and complying with safety standards
- Enhanced Control:
- The winged design and flexible tubing offer improved handling, placement accuracy, and comfort during the procedure, contributing to higher success rates for challenging venipunctures
- Operational Efficiency:
- The single-use, disposable nature simplifies clinical workflows by eliminating the need for reprocessing and ensuring a sterile device every time
