IV Start Kits

IV start kits, also known as intravenous start kits, are used for the initiation of an intravenous (IV) line. An IV line is a thin plastic catheter that is inserted into a patient's vein in order to administer medications, fluids, or nutrients directly into the bloodstream. IV start kits contain all the necessary equipment and supplies, such as needles, catheters, adhesive tape, alcohol swabs, and gauze, to safely and effectively insert and secure an IV line. IV start kits are commonly used in hospitals, healthcare facilities, and in emergency situations to quickly and efficiently establish access to a patient's bloodstream for treatment purposes.
