Frequently asked questions

Does this catheter feature an advanced safety mechanism?

Yes, it features a slide-style safety activation system. Once the needle is withdrawn, it fully retracts into the safety housing, providing an audible click to confirm that the needle is securely encapsulated, which significantly reduces the risk of accidental needlestick injuries.

Is this catheter designed for one-handed insertion?

Absolutely. It is engineered with contoured grips and specialized push-off tabs, allowing clinicians to perform both insertion and catheter advancement using only one hand for maximum efficiency.

How does the needle design minimize patient discomfort?

The needle utilizes a triple-facet, back-cut, and polished bevel design. This sophisticated construction requires significantly less insertion force, which helps to minimize tissue trauma during the vessel entry process.

Is the vessel entry easy to confirm during placement?

Yes, the device features an enhanced flashback design. This allows for immediate, clear confirmation of successful vessel entry directly along the needle shaft, ensuring clinician confidence.

What is the catheter made of?

The catheter is constructed from high-quality polyurethane, which is known for its durability and performance in intravenous fluid administration and blood sampling.

Is this device safe for patients with latex allergies?

Yes, the Prevent SLS Peripheral IV Catheter is not made with natural rubber latex. It is also DEHP-free and non-pyrogenic to ensure safety across a wide range of patient demographics.

Does the hub offer stability during line connection?

Yes, the straight hub is color-coded for rapid identification and features a ridged texture, which provides enhanced grip and superior stability when connecting to standard IV administration sets.

Can this catheter be used for X-ray procedures?

Yes, the material is radiopaque, allowing for clear visualization under X-ray imaging when required.

What are the flow rate and pressure specifications?

The 20-gauge catheter is built for high-performance clinical needs:

Flow Rate: 61 mL/min
Pressure Rating: 300 psi

Does the catheter require any assembly before use?

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