How to Use

Follow standard clinical aseptic technique. Summary steps for peripheral IV insertion:

  2. Apply tourniquet and select a suitable vein; cleanse site with antiseptic and allow to dry.
  3. Stabilize the vein, insert the catheter bevel up at a shallow angle until blood flashback is seen.
  4. Advance the catheter into the vein while withdrawing the needle/stylet; activate safety features if present.
  5. Secure catheter with dressing, flush with saline to confirm patency and label dressing with date/time and gauge.
