Description

The INTRAVENOUS CATHETER INSYTE VIALON BIOMATERIAL AUTOGUARD 18GA 48MM STRAIGHT HUB GREEN, are designed to optimize safety and performance during vascular access procedures. These catheters feature an integrated needle shielding mechanism that activates automatically with the push of a button. This system provides immediate needle retraction upon use, significantly reducing the risk of accidental needlestick injuries and promoting a safer clinical environment.

Constructed using BD Vialon™, a proprietary biomaterial, the catheter offers superior performance compared to standard materials. BD Vialon™ softens within the vein, minimizing trauma to the vessel wall and enhancing dwell time. This leads to improved clinical outcomes and potentially lowers the frequency of catheter-related complications, thereby reducing the need for IV restarts.

The catheter's sharp needle tip and refined design allow for easier penetration with less insertion force. This contributes to enhanced patient comfort and can improve first-stick success rates. The catheter also supports efficient fluid delivery, making it suitable for a variety of clinical applications.
