BBraun Vasofix® Safety IV Catheters

The B. Braun Vasofix® Safety IV Catheter with Injection Port is designed to provide safe, reliable venous access in veterinary practice while helping to reduce the risk of needlestick injuries. Suitable for blood sampling and the intravenous administration of fluids, medications, and blood or blood products, it supports efficient workflows in busy UK clinics.

A passive, fully automatic safety shield deploys immediately after needle withdrawal without user activation and cannot be bypassed, offering consistent protection for veterinary nurses and clinical staff. Double Flashback Technology provides clear confirmation of correct vessel placement, improving confidence during cannulation.

Manufactured from soft polyurethane (PUR), the catheter delivers comfortable indwelling performance, while the universal back-cut bevel supports a wide range of insertion angles with minimal tissue trauma. Fixation wings enhance stability, and the integrated injection port allows rapid injections without interrupting infusion.
