Intocan Safety® 3

Safety taken one step further

Safety meets intuitive handling: Since 1962 we have constantly raised the bar in safe patient access. 

With Introcan Safety® 3 we advanced our design concept, integrating new safety features: more protection from blood exposure and needlestick injuries come along with higher control and convenience. Both patients and clinicians will benefit.

Introcan Safety® 3

Passive safety clip

  • Deploys automatically
  • Cannot be bypassed
  • Requires no use activation

/

Stabilization platform

  • Designed to improve catheter stability
  • Raised Luer thread to help connection away from patient skin

/

Blood control septum

  • Helps to prevent blood exposure1
  • Works multiple times
  • Reduces need for venous compression1
  • Improves process efficiency1,8

/

Double flashback 

  • Supports first stick success
  • Needle-Flash confirm needle is in the vein
  • Catheter-Flash confirms catheter placement

/

Universal back cut bevel

  • Wide choice of insertion angles
  • Designed for minimal puncture trauma7
