Frequently asked questions
Are high-quality, patient-friendly materials used?
Yes, these catheters are constructed from soft and flexible ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene). This material is chosen specifically to enhance patient comfort during intravenous therapy.
Is this catheter suitable for pediatric or fragile veins?
Absolutely. The 24-gauge size is specifically designed for clinical situations that require a smaller diameter, making it ideal for pediatric applications or patients with fragile venous access.
Does the design support medical imaging needs?
Yes, the catheter body is inherently radiopaque, which allows for clear visibility and verification during X-ray procedures.
Are these catheters free from common allergens like latex?
Yes, the McKesson Peripheral IV Catheter is not made with natural rubber latex, which helps minimize the risk of allergic reactions in patients.
Are these devices safe regarding chemical composition?
These catheters are manufactured to be DEHP-free and non-pyrogenic, ensuring they meet modern safety standards for medical devices.
What is the primary use for this catheter type?
This device is engineered for standard intravenous therapy, including infusion and fluid administration, particularly in environments where clinicians prefer non-safety, manual control procedures.
How can staff easily identify the gauge size?
The catheters are color-coded for rapid identification. The yellow-tinted hub specifically indicates that this is a 24-gauge catheter.

No assembly is required. Each unit comes sterile and ready for immediate clinical use right out of the packaging.
