Confidently keep blood in its place–away from you and your patients
With every PIVC insertion attempt, healthcare workers (HCWs) risk exposure to patient blood. When you have to apply pressure after removing the needle and making the initial connection, the risk of blood exposure increases. Blood leakage may expose HCWs to more than 30 dangerous bloodborne pathogens, including hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Your worries can be minimized with the BD Insyte Autoguard Shielded IV Catheter with Blood Control Technology.
The BD Insyte Autoguard BC Shielded IV Catheter with Blood Control Technology takes safety to a new level:
- No need to apply venous compression during insertion
- Demonstrated a 95% reduction in the risk of blood exposure
- Needlestick injury protection
Note: Compared to a non-blood-control catheter.
Patient comfort as a priority
The BD Insyte Autoguard BC Shielded IV Catheter with Blood Control Technology is constructed using BD Vialon Catheter Material. Proprietary BD Vialon Catheter Material softens, enabling longer dwell time and reducing the chance of phlebitis up to 69%.
BD Instaflash Needle Technology
Be in complete control at the point of insertion
First-insertion success is the goal. Quick blood visualization may help improve insertion success and therefore reduce insertion attempts
BD Instaflash Needle Technology incorporates a notched needle, which has clinically demonstrated improved first-attempt insertion success, reducing painful hit-and-miss insertions.
