What are Safety IV Cannulas?
Safety IV Cannulas, also called safety IV catheters, are designed with features to help reduce the risk of needlestick injuries during insertion and removal. These may include needle shields, retractable needles, or safety clips that cover the needle after use, minimizing the potential for accidental exposure.
Safety IV cannulas are available in different sizes, ranging from 18 to 26 gauge, to accommodate various patient needs and treatment requirements. The larger the gauge number, the smaller the needle size, which can reduce patient discomfort during insertion.
As a leading manufacturer of Safety IV Cannulas, AdvaCare Pharma is committed to providing safe and effective products. Our facilities in China, India, and the USA are subject to regular compliance assessments to ensure they meet the highest standards of quality and safety.
Product Specifications
Type
Wing/Butterfly Type
Wing/Butterfly Type safety IV cannulas are designed with a user-friendly, self-activating safety mechanism that ensures the needle safety guard automatically covers the bevel after the withdrawal of the needle from the hub, minimizing the risk of needlestick injuries. The safety mechanism of the butterfly cannula ensures that the sharp needle tip is never exposed, making it a safe option for both healthcare professionals and patients.
Pen/Straight Type
Pen/Straight Type safety IV cannula is a basic and straight device that does not have wings or an injection port. It is designed for easy orientation of the needle bevel and better control during cannulation. Additionally, it features a self-activating safety mechanism that covers the bevel after needle withdrawal from the hub to minimize the risk of needlestick injuries. This makes it an ideal option for high-risk cases where no extra opening is permitted for infection risk.
Injection Port Type
Injection Port Type safety IV cannula comes with wings and a non-return silicone valve for intermittent infusion. It also has a user-friendly, self-activating safety mechanism that automatically covers the needle bevel after withdrawal, reducing the risk of needlestick injuries. These features make it a safe and effective option for administering medication and fluids in a healthcare setting.
