How to Use Winged AutoGuard Catheter?

Tips For Success:

Insertion Success

• Make sure the tip seal is released before insertion by rotating the barrel 360 degrees
• Make sure catheter is seated back in the notch
• Slow down the speed of insertion
• Use less force to penetrate the skin
• Lower the initial insertion angle, keeping the elbow low
• After flash, lower the angle and advance slightly

Seeing The Flash

• Trust your instinct and take a pause
• Look for the flash along the catheter
• Be aware of patient factors such as small veins, condition of vein, dehydration, hypovolemia, hypotension, polycythemia, etc. that may impact flash

Threading With Ease

• After flash, lower the angle and advance slightly before threading catheter off the needle
• Avoid the push-pull technique when advancing
• Maintain traction on the skin

Retracting The Needle

• Make sure tip seal is released before insertion by rotating the barrel 360 degrees
• Make sure to place digital pressure beyond the tip of the catheter
• Make sure needle is not being inadvertently bent while attempting to activate the button

Minimizing The Blood

• Release tourniquet (if used) before pressing the button
• Place digital pressure beyond the catheter tip
• Have IV connector or tubing close by and ready

Avoid Early Activation

• Be aware of where your fingers are
• Remove needle cover in a straight, outward motion
