Introcan Safety® 2 Deep Access

Closed IV Catheter for deep vein access

Introcan Safety® 2 Deep Access is a peripheral IV catheter with a passive fully automatic needlestick protection and multi-access blood control feature. It is designed for difficult venous access (DVA) patients and allows access to deeper veins thanks to its longer catheter (G18-22 x 64mm/2.5in; G22x 45mm/1.75in; G24 x 32mm /1.25in). DVA patients can be clustered as the following:

Pediatric / Neonate patients
Overweight or obese patients
Overage or chronically ill patients
Emergency/ Acute patients

It is a single-use device to generate intravascular and tissue access to sample blood, monitor blood pressure, or administer fluids and blood intravascularly. Introcan Safety® 2 Deep Access is also indicated for subcutaneous infusion therapies and 325 PSI power injector applications.
