BD 382523 Insyte™ Autoguard™ BC Shielded IV Catheter – 22G x 1", Blue
The BD 382523 Insyte™ Autoguard™ BC Shielded IV Catheter is engineered to enhance clinician safety and reduce blood exposure during peripheral IV insertion. This 22‑gauge, 1‑inch catheter features Blood Control Technology, which automatically minimizes blood leakage upon needle withdrawal—helping protect staff from exposure to bloodborne pathogens.
The device incorporates BD’s push‑button Autoguard™ safety mechanism, which instantly retracts the needle into a protective shield, significantly reducing needlestick injuries and eliminating the need for manual recapping.
Constructed from BD Vialon™ biocompatible catheter material, the catheter softens in the vein for improved patient comfort and reduced risk of phlebitis. The notched needle tip and BD Instaflash™ technology provide immediate visual confirmation of vessel entry, supporting higher first‑attempt success rates.
The blue color‑coded hub identifies the 22‑gauge size for quick recognition in fast‑paced clinical environments. Rated to 300 psi, this catheter is suitable for a wide range of IV therapies, including fluid administration, medication delivery, and blood products. It is sterile, latex‑free, radiopaque, and designed for single‑use.
Packaged 50 per box, the BD 382523 is widely used in hospitals, emergency departments, surgery centers, and EMS settings for reliable, safe IV access.
