BD Insyte™ Catheter without Wings
The BD Insyte™ catheter without wings is designed in BD Vialon™, a radiopaque polyurethane offering facilitated insertion with 50% less force required. Sterile and single-use, this peripheral catheter softens once in place, reducing the risk of thrombophlebitis. Its thin wall guarantees optimal flow, available in 8 sizes from 14G to 24G.

Frequently asked questions
What is BD Vialon™ and what are its advantages over Teflon?
BD Vialon™ is a hemocompatible polyurethane that requires approximately 50% less insertion force than Teflon. It becomes soft once in place in the vein while maintaining bevel integrity, thus reducing the risk of venous irritation.
How to choose the right size BD Insyte™ catheter?
Choice depends on the patient's vein calibre and required flow rate. High gauges (14G, 16G) are suitable for rapid infusions or transfusions, while fine gauges (22G, 24G) are suitable for fragile veins or paediatric patients. Length is chosen based on vein depth.
Why is this catheter radio-opaque?
The radio-opacity of BD Vialon™ allows visualisation of the catheter during radiological examinations. This property is useful for verifying catheter positioning or detecting possible migration without needing to remove it.
