BD 381557 - Insyte Autoguard Shielded IV Catheter, Winged, 16g x 1.77 in (1.7mm x 45mm) Gray , BX 50

The BD Insyte Autoguard Shielded IV Catheter offers a trusted solution for safe and reliable intravenous access when you need it most. This winged 16 gauge catheter, measuring 1.77 inches in length, is designed with advanced safety features that help protect both patients and caregivers during IV therapy at home or in clinical settings. The gray-coded hub makes size identification quick and easy, while the built-in push-button safety mechanism instantly retracts the needle after use to reduce the risk of accidental needlestick injuries. Made with BD Vialon biomaterial, this catheter softens in the vein to allow for longer wear time and greater comfort during extended infusion therapy. The winged design provides added stability and control during insertion, making placement more secure and reducing movement once in place. Each sterile catheter is designed for single use and comes in a convenient box of 50, ensuring you have a reliable supply on hand for ongoing care needs. The 16 gauge size supports moderate to high flow rates, making this BD catheter ideal for patients requiring fluid replacement, medication administration, or nutritional support. With BD's reputation for quality and the Autoguard safety shielding technology, this IV catheter gives caregivers confidence and peace of mind when managing infusion therapy at home.
