Jelco^® Seriva^™ IV Catheters

Product Benefits

• Polyurethane catheter material is firm at insertion and softens inside the vein for longer in dwell time and can reduce the risk of phlebitis.₁ The flexibility of the PUR catheter resists kinking better than Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) for less disruption in IV therapy.
• Choose FEP catheter material for firmer insertion and familiar handling.
• Features a large transparent flashback chamber for easy visual confirmation of venipuncture and a removable vent cap for convenient access to blood within the vein.
• V-Point reduces insertion force by 40% compared to leading competitor’s J-Point needles, helping minimize pain and venous trauma during insertion.₁
• 26G-16G devices feature the Jelco® FLASH-VUE® catheter window, an early flashback indicator near the needle tip that may reduce the risk of missed sticks with patients with difficult venous access.
• Ergonomic overall short length gripping surfaces can enhance control and confidence when accessing difficult veins.₁
