BD IV Catheter Overview
The BD Insyte Autoguard™ Shielded IV Catheter with BD Vialon™ Catheter Material 14 G x 1.77 in. is an Autoguard Shielded Non-Blood Control IV Catheter engineered for peripheral venous access in both routine and urgent care settings. Designed with a notched needle tip and Instaflash™ visual confirmation, this catheter helps clinicians verify vein entry on the first attempt, reducing delays and discomfort. Its proprietary BD Vialon™ catheter material softens within the vessel, promoting longer dwell times and minimizing the risk of phlebitis.
The BD Insyte Autoguard Shielded IV Catheter incorporates a push-button safety mechanism that activates a built-in shield to help prevent needlestick injuries immediately after insertion. Available in both winged and non-winged configurations, it supports secure stabilization and adaptable placement across patient types. The catheter’s radiopaque design supports post-insertion imaging, while a 300 psi pressure rating makes it compatible with power injection procedures. The BD Insyte Autoguard IV Catheter is a strong choice for clinicians seeking a disposable IV catheter that supports infection control, pressure management, and safe handling across care environments.
