Abstract:
Peripheral intravenous (IV) cannulas are the quickest and most effective way of gaining venous vascular access and administering IV therapy. Closed-system peripheral IV cannulas have been shown to be safe and more reliable than open, non-valved peripheral cannulas in clinical practice. This article introduces the Smiths Medical DeltaVen closed-system peripheral IV cannula and includes three case studies describing its use in clinical practice and associated patient outcomes.
