Engineered for Intuitive Safety and Precision

Protecting frontline healthcare workers from blood-borne pathogens requires reliable, easy-to-use safety mechanisms. This Slider type IV cannula features a fail-safe needle-stick prevention feature that is manually engaged via a smooth sliding mechanism. With a single-action needle withdrawal, the user slides the shield over the needle tip until it locks securely into place. This intuitive design requires no extra user training and ensures the contaminated needle is safely encapsulated immediately after venipuncture.

For the patient, we utilize Customized Automated Tipping Technology (CATT). This ensures a gently tapered catheter tip that provides an optimal trim distance, resulting in lower penetration forces and a seamless, painless transition into the vein.

Key Features and Advanced Material Options

Because different clinical scenarios require specific physical properties, this IV Cannula without port is available with an expanded range of premium tubing materials.

• Versatile Catheter Options: Choose the optimal catheter for IV therapy based on your clinical needs. We offer thin-walled tubing in PTFE, PUR, FEP, or ETFE. All variations feature integrated radio-opaque lines for immediate visualization under X-ray imaging.
• Streamlined "Pen" Profile: Designed as lockless cannulae (without bulky wings or injection ports), this straight-profile device is ideal for applications where space is limited or where a traditional pen-grip insertion technique is preferred.
• Siliconized Stainless Steel Needle: The core IV catheter needle features an ultra-sharp triple-facet bevel, ensuring smooth tissue penetration and improved patient comfort.
• Transparent Flashback Chamber: Engineered for high visibility, allowing clinicians to receive immediate visual confirmation of successful vein entry.

Usage, Sterilization, and Compliance

Procurement teams can trust the rigorous quality control applied to every batch to ensure optimal physical characteristics and sterility.

• Sterilization: Fully sterilized by Ethylene Oxide (EtO gas). The product is guaranteed non-pyrogenic.
• Clinical Protocol: Intended for peripheral intravenous access by qualified medical personnel. The recommended maximum time of use aligns with CDC guidelines for peripheral lines.
• Disposal: Once the slider mechanism is engaged and locked over the needle, the sharp must be discarded in a certified puncture-resistant container in accordance with hospital protocols for biohazardous waste.

Frequently Asked Questions

‍

What is the difference between a "Slider type" and a "Spring type" safety cannula?

A spring-type mechanism deploys automatically (passively) as the needle is withdrawn. A Slider type IV cannula requires the clinician to actively push a tactile slider forward along the needle track until it clicks and locks over the bevel. Many clinicians prefer the slider type because it offers more manual, tactile control over the exact moment the safety shield engages.

‍

Why choose FEP or ETFE materials for the catheter?

While PUR and PTFE are standard, FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene) and ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene) are highly advanced fluoropolymers. They provide an exceptionally smooth, frictionless surface (similar to Teflon) but offer superior structural stability and chemical resistance, making them ideal for highly specific, abrasive, or long-term medication infusions.

‍

Is this straight, port-less design compatible with standard extension sets?

Yes. Even though it is a streamlined IV Cannula without a port, the proximal hub features standard female Luer lock threading, ensuring secure, leak-free compatibility with all universal extension tubing, 3-way stopcocks, and closed-system transfer devices.

‍

Does engaging the slider safety mechanism cause blood splatter?

No. The slider mechanism is specifically engineered to glide smoothly over the needle shaft. Because it does not rely on a high-tension spring release, it minimizes the kinetic force during activation, effectively eliminating the risk of aerosolized blood splatter.
