Description
The Becton Dickinson BD Venflon I.V. Cannula is a peripheral intravenous catheter designed for administering fluids or medications directly into the bloodstream. The 16G size is suited for situations requiring high flow rates, such as rapid fluid replacement or blood transfusions. Its design incorporates features for both patient comfort and clinician safety. The catheter material is designed to reduce vein trauma, and an integrated port allows for medication administration without needing another needle stick.
Integrated Injection Port: Allows for the administration of medications during infusion without the use of an additional needle. Back-Cut Needle Bevel: The design of the needle and the tapered end of the catheter are intended to allow for easier insertion and minimize the risk of vein damage. Flexible Wings: These help to stabilize the cannula once it is in the vein and provide a point for securement. Biocompatible Catheter Material: The cannula is made from PTFE, a material that helps reduce trauma to the vein. Ergonomic Design: The grip is constructed to accommodate various insertion techniques by healthcare professionals.
