BD Insyte Autoguard Shielded IV Catheter provides the user with advance safety at the push of a button. It incorporates the specially developed BD push-button shielding technology that safeguards clinicians from accidental needle sticks. These IV catheters are made from BD Vialon biomaterial that softens when inside the vein thereby reducing the risk of phlebitis and increasing dwell times. The notched needle technology lets the user easily visualize blood return along the catheter shaft. This enhances care for fragile blood vessels or vessels without venous tone.

The BD Vialon Material helps in:

  • Increasing the ease of penetration
  • Reducing the risks of infiltration
  • Providing greater kink resistance
  • Reducing the risks of phlebitis up to 50%
  • Reducing IV restarts due to reduced complications

How to insert BD Insyte Autoguard Shielded IV Catheter?

Preparation

  • Make sure all items are at hand throughout the procedure
  • Prepare insertion site according to standard policy and procedure
  • Before venipuncture, hold catheter hub and rotate barrel 360 degrees
  • Make sure catheter is seated back in the notch

Venipuncture

  • Approach the vein slowly at a low angle
  • Observe flashback along the catheter (20, 22 and 24 gauge only); in larger gauge sizes, observe flash behind the white button.

Advancement:

  • Upon flashback visualization, lower catheter almost parallel to the skin
  • Before threading, advance entire unit slightly to ensure catheter tip is in the vein
  • Advance catheter into the vein up to the hub, while maintaining skin traction

Needle Removal: 

Before pressing the button

  • Release venous pressure
  • Apply digital pressure beyond the catheter tip
  • Gently stabilize catheter hub
  • Press the white button

Securement:

  • Secure catheter and apply sterile dressing according to standard policy and procedure

 

Precautions to be taken while using Insyte IV Catheters:

  • Do not withdraw needle from catheter hub before pressing the white button
  • Needle should be retracted prior to disposal in a puncture resistant, leak proof sharps container
  • Never reinsert needle into the catheter as this could shear the catheter
  • Do not use scissors at or near the insertion site

Insertion success:

 

  • Release the tip seal before insertion by rotating the barrel 360°
  • Make sure catheter is seated back in the notch
  • Slow down the speed of insertion
  • Lower the initial insertion angle, keeping the elbow low
  • After flash, lower the angle and advance entire catheter/needle unit slightly to ensure the catheter tip is within the vessel

Seeing the flash:

 

  • Trust the instinct and take a pause
  • Look for initial flash along the catheter and then in the flash chamber (20, 22, and 24 gauge); in larger gauge sizes observe initial flash behind the white button 
  • Take care of patient factors such as small veins, small patient, low blood pressure, condition of vein, dehydration, etc., that may slow down flash

Threading with ease:

 

  • Make sure tip seal is released before insertion by rotating the barrel 360° 
  • After flash, lower the angle and advance entire catheter/needle unit slightly to ensure the catheter tip is within the vessel
  • Push the catheter forward off the needle, while holding the needle stationary
  • Maintain traction on the skin while advancing the catheter

 

Retracting the needle:

 

  • Release the tip seal before insertion by rotating the barrel 360°
  • Place pressure on the vessel beyond the tip of the catheter
  • Make sure needle is not being inadvertently bent while attempting to activate the button

Minimizing the blood:

 

  • Release tourniquet before pressing the button
  • Place digital pressure beyond the catheter tip
  • Have IV connector or tubing close by and ready

Avoid early activation:

 

  • Be aware of where the fingers are 
  • Remove needle cover in a straight, outward motion
