Description
How the safety mechanism of Safety IV Cannula works:
- Introducing the Cannula: Perform venipuncture as usual with a standard cannula. The hub is colour-coded for quick viewing of the gauge.
- Advance the catheter: slide the catheter off the needle into the vein and secure the catheter.
- Withdraw the needle: The needle withdrawn and the shield is automatically activated to lock over the needle tip in the needle chamber.
- Dispose: The needle is already covered and can be thrown into the sharps container without an extra step.
Features of Safety IV Cannula:
- Self-activating safety feature which protects the needle after venipuncture
- Needle chamber locks needle tip in order to prevent needle-stick risk to healthcare workers
- Quick-identification, colour-coded needle safety guard
- Circular grip on the needle hub for better handling during insertion
- Snap-fit cap for easy opening and closing of the injection port
- Luer lock connection for secure attachment to infusion sets and syringes
