B. Braun Introcan Safety FEP Polymer Peripheral IV Catheter, 18 Gauge X 1.25"L

B. Braun Introcan Safety Peripheral IV Catheter comes with a passive safety device that is automatically activated and cannot be bypassed. Easy to use and features double flashback technology for successful needle placement every time.

Although safety devices were introduced over a decade ago, preventing needlestick injuries continues to be a major concern. With the B. Braun Introcan Safety IV Catheter, you are protected by a truly passive safety device that is activated automatically and cannot be by-passed. No extra steps are required to ensure healthcare worker and patient safety.

This easy-to-use safety IV catheter incorporates separate needle and catheter flashback - Double Flashback technology - that gives you the added confidence of successful placement every time. The sharp needle features a Universal Bevel geometry that allows a wider choice of insertion angles, which is designed to make the catheter easy to adapt to and venipuncture more comfortable for patients. And with less plastic content than other safety IV catheters, you can potentially reduce storage space and medical waste.

• Ensure Best Practices: the passive safety design ensures that the safety mechanism is always activated and prevents re-insertion of the stylet. Additionally, a recent study shows Introcan Safety results in less blood exposure to staff than catheters featuring spring-retraction of the needle.
