Peripheral Vascular Accesss


Threading an intravenous catheter into a peripheral vein is a routine procedure.

Peripheral Vascular Access is obtained to administer Intravenous Fluids,Blood products and medications.With adequate skills and knowledge of the best site , the proper equipment,and the right technique,this procedure can proceed smoothly.
There are a number of new equipments that have come up in the markets ..here's one of them...                                                        
                                                                              
 
BD insyte autoguard shielded IV catheters are an innovation to reduce needle stick injuries.The `push button sheilding mechanism ' allows the needle and the flash chamber to retract ,thus reducing the chance of a needle stick.                                                                                                                   

Watch this video and send in your suggestions about this product....
