Description

The Peripheral IV Catheter Insyte™ Autoguard™ BC is a safety-engineered intravenous catheter designed for secure and efficient vascular access. Equipped with Blood Control Technology, it minimizes blood exposure during insertion, reducing contamination risks. The catheter is 18 gauge with a 1.16-inch length, making it suitable for a range of medical applications, including fluid administration, medication delivery, and blood draws.

The push-button shielding technology enhances safety by reducing needlestick injuries. Once activated, the needle retracts into the housing, preventing accidental contact. This feature is particularly beneficial in high-paced clinical settings, promoting user confidence and compliance with needlestick prevention protocols.

Constructed with advanced materials, the catheter maintains flexibility while ensuring durability and kink resistance. The design supports optimal flow rates for rapid infusion and reliable performance in various clinical environments. Its radiopaque properties allow for easy visualization under imaging, aiding in precise placement.
