Description

The Suresite IV Auto Safety Catheter, 24G x 0.56", is a medical device designed for safe and efficient intravenous access. It features a polyurethane catheter with an auto-retraction mechanism, enhancing patient and healthcare worker safety by reducing the risk of needlestick injuries. The fully encapsulating needle shield is activated by a pushbutton, offering additional security during and after insertion.

The catheter's contoured housing and ergonomically designed thumb grip provide a secure and comfortable hold for healthcare providers. This design ensures better control during insertion, reducing hand strain and improving accuracy. The 24G size, with its gentle taper, enables smoother and less painful catheter insertion, increasing patient comfort.

A notched needle is included in sizes 20G through 24G, providing clear confirmation of proper needle placement. This feature allows for easier and more accurate placement, ensuring that the catheter is positioned correctly before securing it in place. The large-volume chamber ensures a clear visual flashback, further confirming catheter placement and reducing the likelihood of complications.
