The Introcan Safety 24 Ga × 0.55″ (Ref. 4252511‑02) from B. Braun is designed for peripheral intravenous access in patients with smaller or more fragile veins, such as in pediatric or geriatric populations, or whenever minimal vessel trauma is desired. The very short 0.55‑inch catheter length (approximately 14 mm) makes it well‑suited for superficial vein access, while the 24 gauge size balances adequate flow with patient comfort. The straight hub configuration supports straightforward insertion technique and stable post‑placement performance.

Clinician safety and insertion confidence are key features built into this catheter. The fully automatic passive safety shield deploys without requiring user activation, reducing risk of needlestick injuries—a major concern in vascular access. The Double Flashback technology provides two distinct visual cues: first when the needle enters the vein, then when the catheter is advanced—helping confirm proper placement and supporting higher first‑stick success. Together, these features aim to streamline workflow, reduce insertion attempts, and enhance both clinician and patient experience.

From a materials‐safety and operational perspective, the 4252511‑02 model aligns with modern institutional priorities. Its FEP polymer catheter material offers structural integrity and is designed for reliable performance, while the device is free from natural rubber latex, DEHP and PVC—making it compatible with allergy‑sensitive patient populations and facilities pursuing low‑plasticizer supply chains. With a case pack of 200 units, this catheter supports efficient stocking in high‑volume units such as general wards, outpatient infusion centers or specialty clinics. Overall, the Introcan Safety 24 Ga × 0.55″ is a dependable, safety‑engineered peripheral IV access device that balances performance, patient comfort and inventory efficiency.

A passive safety device sign that deploys automatically and cannot be by-passed. Designed to protect against accidental needlestick injuries to both clinicians and patients. New universal bevel allows for a wider choice of insertion angles to enhance flexibility and patient comfort.
