BD 383312 BD Saf-T-Intima closed IV catheter

The BD Saf-T-Intima closed IV catheter system+ incorporates preattached extension tubing to help support reduction in blood exposure.

Features and Benefits of BD 383312 BD Saf-T-Intima closed IV catheter

Advanced shielding design

A telescoping needle shield passively covers the needle, helping protect clinicians from needlestick injuries.

Closed system

Preattached extension tubing offers a closed system to minimize blood exposure during catheter insertion.

Removable adapter

A removable PRN adapter allows the use of an ISO-compliant needleless connector.

BD Vialon biomaterial

BD Vialon - A trusted biomaterial that improves dwell time with less risk of phlebitis4 in IV therapy, has the same properties to ensure optimal subcutaneous dwell times.

The system is constructed with BD Vialon biomaterial, a proprietary catheter material that softens in the vein.

BD Saf-T-Intima Integrated closed Safety IV System now indicated for subcutaneous infusion therapy

The use of products which exhibit these features is recommended by leading consultants

• 24G short peripheral intravenous catheter
• Comfortable wings for support and stabilization
• Integrated short extension set to aid smooth insertion and reduce catheter movement during use
• Integrated safety mechanism to ensure health care worker safety during and after placement of device

The use of intravenous catheter systems for subcutaneous infusion therapy is predominant. Compared to winged steel needle sets, peripheral IV catheters will:

• Dramatically reduce needle stick injuries
• Increase dwell time
• Reduce risks from steel sharp under patients skin
• Reduce skin reactions

The design of the intravenous catheter can aid patient comfort and help ensure optimal dwell times are achieved.
