NIPRO I.V CANNULA /Pack of 100 PCS (1 Box)

DESCRIPTION

If you’re looking at Nipro I.V. cannulas, you’re dealing with one of the industry standards for vascular access. Nipro is well-known for their high-flow rates and ultra-sharp needles, which generally means a smoother experience for both the clinician and the patient.

Here is a breakdown of the typical features and the universal color-coding system they follow.

Key Technical Features

• Triple-beveled Needle: Designed with a back-cut edge to minimize tissue trauma and “punch” through the skin with less force.

• Kink-Resistant Catheter: Usually made from FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene) or Polyurethane, which softens at body temperature to reduce the risk of phlebitis.

• Transparent Flashback Chamber: Allows for immediate visualization of blood return, confirming successful vein entry.

• Hydrophobic Filter: Prevents blood leakage while allowing air to escape during insertion.

• Wings & Ports: Most Nipro models come with flexible wings for secure fixation and an injection port with a non-return valve for bolus medication.

  Safety Variations

  Nipro offers different versions depending on the clinical environment:

  • Protective (Safety) Type: Features a needle-shielding mechanism to prevent accidental needle-stick injuries after withdrawal.

  • Non-Ported: A streamlined version without the top injection port, often used to reduce the risk of infection or for specific oncology protocols.
