Description
The Polymed Polysafety Adva I.V. Cannula is a medical device designed for providing intravenous access. It features a self-activating safety mechanism to reduce the risk of needlestick injuries for healthcare professionals. The cannula is constructed from advanced polyurethane, a biocompatible material intended to allow for longer indwelling times and minimize irritation. Its integrated injection port allows for the administration of medication without requiring an additional needle puncture, aiming to reduce patient discomfort.
Passive Safety Mechanism: A self-activating safety guard automatically covers the needle tip upon withdrawal, which helps in preventing accidental needlestick injuries. Adva Needle Technology: This feature provides quick flashback visualization, which is an instant confirmation of successful vein entry. Biocompatible Catheter: The cannula is made from advanced polyurethane, a material with high biocompatibility that is designed to be soft and flexible, potentially reducing the risk of mechanical phlebitis. Injection Port with Snap-Fit Cap: Allows for medication administration and is designed for easy, single-hand operation. Encapsulated Needle Bevel: Upon withdrawal, the needle bevel is fully encapsulated, which minimizes exposure to blood and reduces the risk of contamination.
Q: What is the main purpose of the Polymed Polysafety Adva I.V. Cannula?
A: This cannula is a medical device intended for short-term intravenous access to administer fluids or medications and to sample blood, for use by trained medical personnel only.
Q: What does the 'Polysafety' feature signify?
A: It refers to a self-activating safety mechanism that covers the needle tip after withdrawal, which is designed to help protect healthcare workers from accidental needlestick injuries.
Q: What is the function of the injection port?
A: The injection port allows for the administration of medication without interrupting the ongoing infusion, facilitated by a snap-fit cap for access.
Q: What does '24G' indicate?
A: The '24G' or 24 gauge refers to the size of the cannula. It is a smaller size, often indicated by a yellow color code, and is suitable for patients with delicate veins, including pediatric use.
Q: What is 'Adva Needle Technology'?
A: This technology is designed to show a quick flashback of blood, which helps to confirm that the cannula is correctly placed within the vein, potentially increasing first-prick success.
