Closed IV catheter system / integrated safety catheter with Y adapter
Description
The BD Saf-T-Intima Close with Y adapter 24G x 0.75\ is an integrated, closed IV catheter safety system designed for peripheral IV and subcutaneous infusion therapy, particularly in patients with difficult veins such as oncology, paediatric, geriatric and palliative care patients. The device combines a 24-gauge (0.7 x 19 mm) BD Vialon biomaterial catheter with flexible wings, preattached extension tubing and a Y adapter. A passive telescoping needle shield fully encapsulates the needle after use to minimise needlestick injury risk and blood exposure. The closed system design helps keep blood contained within the device during insertion, supports longer catheter dwell times and optimises patient comfort while improving clinician safety.
Bnefits
- Closed IV catheter system with preattached extension tubing and Y adapter helps minimise blood exposure during insertion and handling.
- Passive telescoping needle shield automatically covers the needle as it is withdrawn, reducing the risk of accidental needlestick injuries.
- BD Vialon biomaterial catheter softens in situ, helping to reduce insertion trauma, kinking and complication rates while supporting longer dwell times.
- Flexible, textured wings provide stable, low-profile fixation and improved catheter stabilisation in the vessel, which can reduce catheter movement and dislodgement.
- Integrated design allows manipulation away from the insertion site, which can further reduce the risk of catheter dislodgement and local irritation.
- DEHP-free and latex-free design reduces exposure to common plasticisers and latex allergens.
- Suitable for subcutaneous infusion therapy (hypodermoclysis), offering an alternative route when IV access is not required, possible or practical.
- Can be preprimed via the Y adapter, simplifying setup and reducing touch contamination risk.
- Helps improve infusion-centre efficiency and may reduce IV restarts by lowering complication rates and extending catheter dwell time.
Indications
- Peripheral closed IV catheter for short-term intravenous therapy and fluid administration.
- Subcutaneous infusion therapy (hypodermoclysis) for hydration, pain relief, palliative care and other therapies where subcutaneous access is appropriate.
- Cannulation of oncology and other patients with fragile or difficult veins, where a butterfly-style insertion technique and integrated extension set are advantageous.
- Situations where reduction of blood exposure and needlestick injury risk is a priority for staff safety.
Composition
- Catheter made from BD Vialon biomaterial (radiopaque polyurethane).
- 24G catheter size, 0.75" (19 mm) length, yellow hub coding for 24 gauge.
- Integrated flexible extension tubing with Y adapter (closed system design).
- Passive telescoping needle shield integrated into the safety system.
- DEHP-free construction.
- Latex-free materials.
- PVC used in the tubing.
- Sterilised with ethylene oxide.
- Single-use, sterile, non-pyrogenic construction.
Formulation
- Integrated safety IV catheter system comprising a 24G x 0.75" BD Vialon catheter with butterfly wings, preattached extension tubing and Y adapter, and a passive telescoping needle safety mechanism.
Packaging
- 25 catheter systems per shelf box (Box of 25).
- 200 catheter systems per shipping case (8 boxes of 25).
- Each catheter system supplied individually in a sterile blister pack.
- GTIN (each): 00382903833191.
- GTIN (shelf pack of 25): 30382903833192.
- GTIN (case of 200): 50382903833196.
Usage
- Inspect the sterile blister pack; do not use if packaging is damaged or if the product is past its expiry date.
- Prepare the device by loosening the safety shield as directed in the Instructions for Use and prepriming the extension line and Y adapter with compatible infusion fluid according to local protocol.
- For Y-port priming, remove the vent/port cap, prime with fluid, then replace the cap before insertion in accordance with organisational procedures.
- Using aseptic technique, grasp and pinch the textured butterfly wings together to stabilise the catheter for insertion.
- Perform venipuncture or subcutaneous insertion at the selected site, advancing the catheter into the vessel or subcutaneous tissue according to clinical guidelines.
- Once placement is confirmed, advance the catheter while withdrawing the needle, allowing the passive telescoping shield to automatically cover and lock over the needle.
- Secure the wings and extension set with an appropriate sterile dressing and fixation method to minimise catheter movement and dislodgement.
- Connect infusion lines or administration sets to the Y adapter ports as required, following institutional protocols for IV or subcutaneous therapy.
- After therapy is complete, clamp/stop infusions, disconnect tubing as per protocol, remove the catheter carefully and dispose of the entire device immediately into an approved sharps container.
- Single use only; do not resterilise or reuse.
Contraindications
- Do not use if the sterile package is damaged or opened prior to use.
- Do not reuse; reuse of single-use IV catheters may lead to infection, loss of performance and device malfunction.
- Use with caution or avoid in patients with known hypersensitivity or allergy to polyurethane or any components of the device.
Adverse Effects
- Potential for local site reactions such as pain, erythema, bruising, haematoma or swelling at the insertion site.
- Standard IV catheter-related complications such as phlebitis, infiltration, occlusion, infection or catheter dislodgement may occur.
- Improper insertion technique or failure to activate the safety mechanism may increase the risk of needlestick injury.
- Rare risk of hypersensitivity reaction to device materials in susceptible individuals.
Storage Conditions
- Store in a clean, dry environment at room temperature.
- Keep away from direct sunlight and excessive heat or moisture.
- Maintain in original packaging until point of use to preserve sterility.
- Avoid mechanical damage, crushing or bending of packaging during storage and transport.
