The Protectiv series of catheters pioneered the movement to \ innovative safety design that protect the healthcare worker from \ the risks associated with accidental needlestick injuries. Choice \ of catheter materials, FEP polymer or radiopaque polyurethane, and \ needlepoint design eases conversion to safety catheters. Unique \ V-point needle and advanced catheter tip provide for ultrasmooth \ insertions. Push-off tab facilitates one-handed threading; helps \ you keep both hands behind the needle until it is safely locked \ within the needle guard. Optically clear yet radiopaque Ocrilon \ polyurethane is shown to reduce infusion-related phlebitis, \ allowing longer indwelling. A reassuring "click" confirms the \ needle is safely locked within the needle guard. Built-in needle \ guard securely encases the entire needle to reduce needlestick \ injuries. \
