The B Braun Introcan Safety IV Catheter Needle 24 gauge x 3/4" is a medical device used to access a patient's vein for the administration of fluids, medication, or blood products. The number 24 gauge refers to the size of the catheter needle, which is a measurement of its diameter. The smaller the gauge number, the larger the needle size. The 3/4" measurement refers to the length of the needle, which is the distance from the tip to the hub (attachment point) of the needle. This specific catheter is made by the company B Braun and has a built-in safety feature to help protect healthcare providers from needlestick injuries.

The B Braun Introcan Safety IV Catheter Needle 24 gauge x 3/4" is a sterile, non-toxic needle that is used for safely and securely accessing intravascular sites for drips and assist with medications. With a double bevel tip that creates valved channels, this needle enables rapid, atraumatic penetration with an extremely sharp peel-back sheath. Furthermore, it has a high lubricity jacket that helps protect the patient by making entry smooth and lessening venous damage. Additionally, the tapered hub ergonomics in your far makes insertion easy and gentle. With these features, the B Braun Introcan Safety IV Catheter needle creates a secure and reliable connection to the vessel reducing trauma resulting from unnecessary repuncturing.

FAQs About IV Catheter Needles
  • What is an IV Catheter?

    An IV catheter (intravenous catheter) is a flexible, sterile medical device inserted into a vein to provide direct access to the bloodstream for the administration of IV fluids, medications, blood transfusions, and for blood sampling. IV catheters are essential in emergency departments, surgeries, hospitals, clinics, and home infusion therapy for both adults and pediatric patients.

  • What is the Difference Between an IV Cannula and IV Catheter?

    IV cannula and IV catheter are often used interchangeably. An IV catheter technically refers to the flexible tube inserted into the vein. The IV cannula is a catheter introduced by using a needle (called a stylet) which is withdrawn after catheter placement. Both serve the same purpose: providing intravenous access.

  • What is the Difference Between a Catheter and an IV Line?

    Catheter: The actual flexible tube inserted into the vein. IV line: The entire system, including the catheter, extension tubing, and the infusion set connecting to IV fluids or medications.

  • Is it Painful to Get an IV Catheter?

    Most patients experience mild discomfort or a quick pinch during insertion, but modern ultra-sharp needles and smooth catheters make the process minimally painful. Pain is brief and usually subsides quickly.

  • What are the Three Types of IV Catheters?

    Peripheral IV Catheter: Most common, placed in hand, forearm, or foot vein for short-term use. Central Venous Catheter (CVC): Inserted into large veins (e.g., subclavian, jugular) for long-term therapies. Midline Catheter: Longer than peripheral, but not a central line. Used for intermediate-term treatments.

  • How Long Can an IV Catheter Stay In?

    Peripheral IV catheters: Typically changed every 72–96 hours or sooner if signs of infection or malfunction. Central venous catheters: Can stay for weeks to months with proper care. Always follow hospital protocol and CDC guidelines.

  • What is Another Name for an IV Catheter?

    Other names include IV line, IV cannula, intravenous cannula, peripheral line, or "drip.

  • Which Vein is Preferred for IV Catheters?

    The antecubital vein (in the bend of the elbow), dorsal hand veins, and the cephalic vein are most frequently used due to accessibility and size.

  • Does an IV Catheter Have a Needle?

    An IV catheter is inserted using a sharp needle (stylet), but the needle is withdrawn after insertion, leaving only the soft catheter in place inside the vein for infusion.

  • What Are the Four Main Types of IV Fluids?

    Normal Saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride) Lactated Ringer’s Solution Dextrose Solutions (D5W, D10W) Half Normal Saline (0.45% Sodium Chloride) These fluids restore hydration, electrolyte balance, and provide energy or medication delivery.

  • Is an IV Catheter a Sharp?

    The needle used for insertion is a sharp, but the catheter itself is a soft, flexible tube. Proper disposal of both is essential for safety.

  • What Does Getting an IV Feel Like?

    Most describe it as a quick pinch or sting during insertion, followed by slight pressure or a mild ache if the IV is in for a long period. If you experience pain, swelling, or burning after placement, notify a nurse immediately.

  • How is an IV Catheter Inserted?

    Site is cleaned and prepped. Tourniquet applied to make the vein prominent. Needle with catheter inserted into vein. Needle withdrawn, catheter left in place. Secured with dressing and connected to IV line. Flush and check for blood return.

  • Can You Shower With an IV Line?

    It is possible but special waterproof dressings are needed. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions to avoid infection.

  • Can an IV Catheter Break Off in the Vein?

    Rare, but possible if mishandled. This is why only trained professionals should insert or remove IV catheters. If breakage is suspected, seek immediate medical attention.

  • What Happens If IV is Not in Vein?

    If the IV catheter is not properly in the vein (infiltration), fluids/medications may leak into surrounding tissue, causing swelling and discomfort. IV should be stopped and restarted in a new vein.

  • When Should an IV Catheter Be Removed?

    Signs of infection (redness, swelling, pus) Malfunction (no infusion flow, pain, infiltration) After completion of therapy, or per hospital policy (usually every 72–96 hours for peripherals)

  • Is an IV Catheter a Needle?

    No. The catheter is a soft, flexible tube. Only the needle is sharp and is removed after insertion.

  • How to Remove an IV Catheter?

    Wash hands, wear gloves. Stop the infusion and remove tape/dressing. Gently withdraw the catheter in a smooth motion. Apply pressure to site with gauze. Bandage site and inspect for complications.
