The BD Insyte Peripheral Intravenous Catheter 24G x 19mm (Single) (Ref: 381212) is a sterile, single-use peripheral intravenous (IV) cannula constructed from proprietary BD Vialon biomaterial, engineered for smooth vascular access in fragile, small, or pediatric veins.
Key Features
-
BD Vialon Biomaterial: Advanced polyurethane material softens inside the vein, conforming to vascular anatomy to significantly reduce phlebitis, mechanical irritation, and catheter kink risk.
-
Precision-Ground Needle Tip: Ultra-sharp, double-bevel lubricated stainless steel needle minimizes penetration force and patient discomfort during venipuncture.
-
Compact 24G x 19mm Gauge: Fine 24-gauge profile with a short 19 mm length designed specifically for delicate, small, or compromised peripheral veins.
-
Clear Flashback Chamber: Instant visual confirmation of venous blood entry facilitates rapid and accurate catheter placement.
-
Radiopaque Construction: Fully radiopaque stripe running along the cannula allows X-ray detection if catheter displacement or integrity verification is required.
Clinical Indications
-
Peripheral Vascular Access: Intravenous fluid administration, medication delivery, and blood sampling in pediatric, elderly, or oncology patients with small or fragile veins.
-
Low-Flow Infusion Therapy: Continuous or intermittent administration of compatible non-irritating intravenous solutions and emergency drugs.
