CATHETER IV CLOSED NEXIVA 20G X && 1IN W/HF Y-SITE PINK BX/20 P84

This BD Nexiva™ Closed IV Catheter System (20G x 1.00") is a premier vascular access solution designed to combine multiple components into a single, sterile, integrated system. By incorporating the catheter, extension tubing, and a high-flow Y-site, this system simplifies the clinical workflow while providing superior protection against blood exposure and needlestick injuries.

Key Specifications

• Gauge: 20 Gauge (color-coded pink for standard adult clinical use).

• Length: 1.00 inch (25 mm).

• Configuration: Closed system with a High-Flow (HF) Y-Site for multi-line access.

• Packaging: Box of 20 (BX/20), individually sterile-wrapped.

• Brand: BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company).

Features & Benefits

• All-in-One Closed System: The integrated design minimizes the risk of blood leakage during insertion, creating a cleaner and safer environment for both the patient and the clinician.

• High-Flow Y-Site: Features a specialized dual-port Y-site designed to support high-flow infusion therapy, allowing for simultaneous administration of fluids or medications.

• BD Instaflash™ Needle Technology: Increases first-stick success by providing immediate visual feedback of vessel entry through a notch in the needle, confirmed by a visible blood flash.

• BD Vialon™ Biomaterial: Made from proprietary polyurethane that softens within the vessel. This reduces the risk of mechanical phlebitis and infiltration, allowing for longer dwell times (up to 96 hours or per facility protocol).

• Stabilization Platform: The integrated soft-wing platform provides a secure base that contours to the patient’s skin, reducing catheter movement and helping to prevent accidental dislodgement.

Clinical Usage

• Applications: Specifically suited for adult patients requiring standard IV therapy, blood transfusions, or emergency fluid resuscitation where high flow rates are necessary.

• Safety Standards: Features a passive needle-shielding mechanism that activates automatically upon needle withdrawal to prevent accidental sharps injuries.

• Disposal: Dispose of the needle assembly in a puncture-resistant sharps container immediately following the successful advancement of the catheter into the vein.
