BD 381444 Insyte Autoguard BC Shielded IV Catheter
The well-established BD Insyte Autoguard shielded IV catheter incorporates advanced safety features including a push button that instantly retracts the needle, helping reduce the risk of accidental needlestick injuries. It also features notched needle technology that lets you easily visualise blood return along the catheter, which can potentially improve first stick success by providing clinicians with immediate vessel entry confirmation.
Enhanced safety | First-stick success | Minimized phlebitis |
| BD push-button needle shielding technology is demonstrated to reduce needlestick injuries by 95%. | BD Instaflash needle technology on 20-G, 22-G and 24-G products incorporate a notched needle, which may improve first-stick success and reduce painful hit-and-miss insertions. | BD Vialon biomaterial softens up to 70% in the vein, enabling longer dwell times2 and reducing the chance of mechanical phlebitis by up to 50%. |

| Proven to optimize patient outcomes Multiple clinical investigations conducted over ten years have proven that IV catheters made of BD Vialon biomaterial are easier to insert, while providing longer indwelling times with improved patient outcomes. ..catheters made of PEU-Vialon were substantially less phlebitogenic than were catheters made of FEP-Teflon. The reduction in risk was nearly 30% overall; in severe phlebitis, the reduction was nearly 50%. |  |
Designed to increase first-stick success. A successful first-stick is important for both you and your patient, especially when accessing small and compromised veins.
