Introcan Safety® Deep Access
Safety IV Catheter for deep vein access
Introcan Safety® Deep Access is a peripheral IV catheter with a passive fully automatic needlestick protection. It is designed for difficult intravenous access (DIVA) patients and allows access to deeper veins thanks to its longer catheter(G18-22 x 64mm / 21/2 in; G24 x 32mm / 11/4 in). DIVA patients can be clustered as the following:
Pediatric / Neonate patients
Overweight or obese patients
Overage or chronically ill (i.e. diabetes) patients
Emergency / Acute (i.e. skin burn, haematoma, dehydration) patients
It is a single-use device to generate intravascular and tissue access to sample blood, monitor blood pressure, or administer fluids and blood intravascularly. Introcan Safety® Deep Access is also indicated for subcutaneous infusion therapies and 300 PSI power injector applications.
Advantages
Deep vein access – The longer length of the catheter allows to access deeper veins and gives more flexibility to choose veins. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
A longer part of the capillary tubing stays in the vein and helps to prevent catheter dislodgements and infiltrations. 1, 3, 4, 5, 6
Longer extended dwell catheter for increased survival rates compared to standard length catheters.7
Passive safety shield - A passive fully automatic protection helps eliminating needlestick injuries and related infections. It deploys automatically, cannot be bypassedand requires no user activation. 8, 9
Ultrasound visibility –Cannula tip visible under ultrasound, providing a visualization aid during the insertion process and therefore helps to increase the chance of a successful placement.10,11,12,13
Universal Back Cut Bevel – Allows for a wide choice in insertion angles and is designed for minimal puncture trauma.14
Radiopaque Stripes - For a good visibility of the catheter capillary under X-Ray.
Power Injectable – Pressure rated for contrast media application at 300 PSI
IV catheter material available in Polyurethane (PUR) for a soft and more comfortable in-dwelling performance15
