B. Braun Introcan Safety® IV Catheter
Reduce Needlestick Injuries
Studies have shown that user-activated safety devices are deployed only 83% of the time (reference: Victoria Valls, 2007). Passive safety design is proven to be more effective than user-activated design (reference: Y. Linuna 2005).

- Safety feature requires no user activation — no button, twists or clicks
- Safety shield stays in place through disposal
