The Vacutainer Push Button Blood Collection Set was created to prevent needlestick injuries amongst healthcare workers. This system is the only blood collection device with push button technology.

The push button technology provides immediate protection with the push of a button. The system is not hard to use with minimal training, increasing compliance. The activation does not cause any extra pain to the patient, it is ideal for high-risk environments.

The needle features in vein retraction, which reduces the risk of healthcare workers from being exposed to a contaminated needle. When the needle is placed correctly into the vein a flash visualization is seen to confirm access.

The Vacutainer® Push Button Blood Collection Set is the perfect solution for safe uncompromised blood collection.
