BD 382533 Insyte™ Autoguard™ BC Shielded IV Catheter – 20 G × 1", Pink
The BD 382533 Insyte™ Autoguard™ BC Shielded IV Catheter combines blood‑control technology with push‑button needle shielding to enhance clinician safety and patient comfort during peripheral IV insertion. Designed for 20‑gauge, 1‑inch applications, this catheter supports rapid fluid infusion and blood transfusion while minimizing exposure to bloodborne pathogens.
Its integrated blood‑control valve automatically stops blood flow upon needle withdrawal, reducing leakage and contamination risk. The Autoguard™ push‑button mechanism retracts the needle instantly into a protective shield, eliminating manual recapping and helping prevent needlestick injuries.
Manufactured from BD Vialon™ biocompatible polyurethane, the catheter softens in the vein for improved patient comfort and reduced phlebitis. The notched needle tip and Instaflash™ technology provide immediate visual confirmation of vein entry, improving first‑attempt success rates.
Color‑coded pink hub identifies the 20‑gauge size for quick recognition in high‑acuity settings. The catheter is sterile, latex‑free, non‑winged, and rated to 300 psi pressure, suitable for general IV therapy, emergency, surgical, and critical‑care use.
Packaged 50 per box, the BD 382533 offers reliable performance and safety compliance for hospitals, surgical centers, and infusion clinics.
