The BD 382534 Insyte Autoguard BC Shielded IV Catheter With Blood Control Technology is a state-of-the-art medical device designed to minimize blood exposure and reduce the risk of needlestick injuries. This catheter is clinically proven to decrease the risk of blood exposure by a significant 95%, ensuring a safer and cleaner environment for both healthcare workers and patients.
The product’s unique blood control technology is designed to halt blood flow from the catheter hub immediately upon insertion, eliminating the need for venous compression and reducing the mess and risk associated with blood leakage. The catheter also features BD Instaflash needle technology, which incorporates a notched needle to enhance first-stick success and lessen the occurrence of painful, unsuccessful insertions.
The BD Insyte Autoguard BC catheter is made from BD Vialon biomaterial, which softens up to 70% in the vein, allowing for longer dwell times and reducing the chance of mechanical phlebitis by up to 50%. The catheter is pink in color, with a gauge of 20 and a length of 1.16 inches.
The product comes in a box of 50, ensuring you have ample supply for your medical needs. The catheter is designed for single-use, prescription use, and is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for patients with latex allergies. Please note that the product does not contain MRI safety information and is not a combination product or a human cell, tissue, or cellular or tissue-based product (HCT/P).
