B. Braun Vasofix ® Safety and Introcan ® Safety Cannula Product Review.
The UK market leading Safety Cannula from B Braun is now the cannula of choice in well over one third of the NHS hospitals in the UK, preventing healthcare workers from sustaining a needlestick injury and the potential exposure to blood borne viruses such as HEP C, HEP B and HIV, all of which can have a devastating impact on someones life.
Vasofix Safety ported cannula and Introcan Safety non ported safety cannula incorporate a uniquely designed, tamper proof self activating safety clip which is housed in the hub of the cannula, activating automatically on withdrawal of the needle, ensuring complete protection without the need for a change in handling technique.
The next generation of the product was launched 2 years ago and has been an outstanding success. The new needle bevel design provides high first time puncture success rates and low patient pain no matter what the angle of insertion.
Being the market leading safety cannula launched in the UK over 5 years ago, NHS Trusts can be assured that the proven success of Vasofix and Introcan Safety is the way to prevent needlestick injuries and support the reduction in HCAIs.
