Disposable IV Cannula intravenous catheter with injection port 18G/20G/22G/24G

IV Cannula (butterfly/wings type)

1. IV Cannula or Intravenous Catheter:
- Purpose: An IV cannula is a flexible tube inserted into a patient's vein to provide intravenous access for the administration of fluids, medications, or blood products. It can also be used for blood draws.
- Material: IV cannulas are typically made of materials like plastic, Teflon, or other biocompatible materials.

2. Disposable Design:
- Single-Use: The term "disposable" indicates that the IV cannula is intended for single-use only. After use, it is disposed of to reduce the risk of infection or contamination.

3. Injection Port:
- Purpose: The injection port is a feature that allows additional medications or fluids to be administered through the same IV access point without the need for needle reinsertion.

4. Gauge Sizes (18G, 20G, 22G, 24G):
- Gauge: The gauge of the IV cannula refers to the diameter of the tube. The choice of gauge depends on factors such as the patient's condition, the type of fluids or medications to be administered, and the size of the patient's veins. Larger gauges (e.g., 18G) allow for a faster flow rate, while smaller gauges (e.g., 24G) may be used for more delicate procedures or for patients with smaller veins.

* Excellent tipping technology ensures smooth vein puncture
* Best quality of tube made in Europe performs best bio-compatibility.
* Japanese sharp needle is used.
* Thin wall construction permits higher flow rates
* Smooth insertions
* Greater patient comfort
* Non-toxic and non-pyrogenic

Is IV line and cannula same?
Peripheral line placement, also referred to as peripheral intravenous (IV) cannulation, is the insertion of an indwelling single-lumen plastic conduit across the skin into a peripheral vein. Such devices may be referred to as peripheral IV (or venous) lines, cannulas, or catheters depending on the country.

What is the size of cannula?
According to a 2015 study, the most common sizes range from 14 to 22 gauge. The higher the gauge number, the smaller the cannula. Different sized cannulas move liquid through them at different rates, known as flow rates. A 14 gauge cannula can pass approximately 270 milliliters (ml) of saline in 1 minute.

What is the smallest IV cannula?
The biggest diameter for IV catheters is 14G and the smallest is 26G
