1 Introcan Safety 1 billion times protection Vascular Access
2 The B. Braun Introcan Safety IV Catheter Reduces Needlestick Injuries Passive Safety Technology Established worldwide: B. Braun has minimized the risk of accidental needlestick injuries globally with more than1 billion B. Braun Safety IV Catheters in use times protection against sharps injuries times protection against infections like HIV times protection against fear and uncertainty Passive Safety Technology is incorporated into the Introcan Safety IV Catheter via an integrated fully automatic Safety Shield which protects the needle tip to prevent needlestick injuries. A recent study confirmed that passive safety engineered devices create significantly better protection for healthcare workers than those that require the user to activate the safety feature. 6 In fact, passive safety devices were associated with the lowest needlestick injury rate and are most effective for needlestick injury prevention. 6 The Safety Shield of Introcan Safety Requires no user activation no button, twists or clicks Automatically covers needle tip upon needle withdrawal Cannot be bypassed Eliminates risk of inadvertent activation during handling Stays in place through disposal The Passive Safety Shield protects the needle tip without any additional steps.
3 Improves First Stick Success Double Flashback Technology: Helps ensure first stick success and patient comfort through quick visualization of both needle and catheter flashback Promotes best practices by reducing the need to remove and reinsert the needle in order to confirm catheter placement, as may occur with other notched needle/crimped needle systems Double Flashback Technology clearly indicates correct catheter placement and the success of the venipuncture. This safe confirmation maximizes your confidence! Needle Flash: 1 st flashback inside flashback chamber. Catheter Flash: 2 nd flashback between catheter and cannula. Vein Needle Flash: 1st flashback confirms the needle is in the vein Vein Catheter Flash: 2nd flashback confirms the catheter is in the vein User benefits: Easy puncture at a wide range of angles Minimum effort of catheter insertion Self-activating Safety Shield covers needle tip automatically after use Simplicity looks and feels like a standard cannula
4 Vascular Access Ensures Best Practice Every product detail is designed for Best Practice: Easy to use: No extra steps needed to prepare the catheter for insertion Universal Back Cut Bevel tricuspid incision lancet cut Universal Back Cut Bevel Wide choice of insertion angles aids in accessing difficult veins Super-sharp needle bevel offers a reduction in pain due to lower forces Creates a V-shaped, tricuspid incision versus a lancet cut for easier catheter insertion, less tissue tearing, faster healing and reduced risk of infection 7 Catheter Material Catheter Material Assures easy and smooth catheter advancement Available in polyurethane (PUR) for softer, more comfortable, longer in-dwelling performance and kink resistance, or FEP with firmer construction for arterial access. All are PVC-, DEHP- and Latex-free Radiopaque stripes for good visibility under X-rays Wings Wings Easy fixation Push-Off Plate Push-Off Plate Facilitates one-handed catheter advancement Minimizes incidence of catheter hub touch contamination Indicates needle bevel orientation Flashback Chamber Flashback Chamber Transparent flashback chamber allows quick visualization of blood Rapid confirmation of vein access Removable Flash Plug Removable Flash Plug Avoids blood exposure Permits attachment of a syringe for aspiration or other special procedures
5 Prevents the risk of accidental injuries Have you or a colleague ever been stuck by a contaminated needle? The chances are high that you have! At an average hospital, workers suffer from approximately 30 needlestick injuries per 100 hospital beds per year. 2 Risk of being infected from a contaminated needlestick injury 1 See the statistics: Blood-borne pathogen transmission. Most common causes of sharp injuries are unexpected patient reactions, shortage of staff, rushing, distraction, collision with another healthcare worker or passing equipment. 3,4 These factors cannot be controlled. Accidental needlestick injuries can happen to anyone! These injuries may cause a number of serious and potentially fatal transmissions of hepatitis B or C viruses (HBV, HCV), or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). 4 In fact, nearly 90,000 healthcare workers worldwide contract blood-borne infections annually (HBV, HCV, HIV). 5 Hepatitis B 1 in 3 Safety devices reduce the risk of a needlestick injury by 22% 100%. 6 Consider not all safety devices can protect you! Main reasons for a needlestick injury with safety devices: 6 Safety mechanism has to be activated by the user Risky activation procedure Incomplete activation User noncompliance Hepatitis C 1 in 30 These risks can be prevented by using a Passive Safety device such as Introcan Safety HIV 1 in 300
