Description

The Intravenous Catheter Protective FEP Safety Feature 24GA 0.62IN is a sterile peripheral intravenous catheter designed to provide reliable vascular access while supporting clinician safety during catheter placement. Its compact 24-gauge diameter and 0.62-inch length make it suitable for patients requiring small-bore intravenous access, including pediatric, geriatric, and difficult-vein populations. 

Manufactured with FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) catheter material, the device is designed for dependable performance during short-term intravenous therapy. A porous insert incorporated into the catheter assembly provides consistent flashback visualization, allowing clinicians to confirm vessel entry quickly and accurately. This feature supports successful catheter placement while helping reduce insertion-related complications and procedural delays.

The catheter incorporates a needle guard with a formed-in-place gasket that helps minimize blood contact during insertion and needle withdrawal. This protective design contributes to a cleaner working environment and supports blood exposure reduction protocols. Multiple push-off tabs facilitate one-handed catheter threading, improving handling efficiency and allowing controlled advancement of the catheter into the vessel.
