The Kid-man SANVIflon I.V. Cannula 26G is a high-quality, sterile peripheral venous catheter designed for precise and safe intravenous access. Constructed from FEP Teflon, this cannula features a stainless steel back-cut needle that facilitates smooth vessel entry. The device is engineered for clinical reliability, incorporating radiopaque lines for clear visibility under imaging and a specialized valve system that effectively prevents blood leakage during the insertion process.
Advantages
This cannula offers significant benefits for clinical staff, primarily through its ergonomic design that supports one-handed insertion, which is essential for maintaining control during procedures. The inclusion of a flashback chamber allows for immediate confirmation of successful vein entry, while the hydrophobic filter and integrated valve provide a clean working environment by preventing backflow. Furthermore, the material composition is entirely latex-free and phthalate-free, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions and chemical leaching, making it a safe choice for sensitive patients.
Suitable for
- Peripheral intravenous therapy
- Rapid administration of liquid medications
- Fluid replacement therapy
- Short-term venous access in clinical settings
This cannula may not be suitable for patients requiring long-term indwelling catheterization beyond standard clinical protocols or for individuals with specific contraindications to Teflon-based materials. It is not intended for use in high-pressure infusion systems that exceed the flow rate capacity of a 26G gauge needle.

To use the Kid-man SANVIflon I.V. Cannula, ensure the site is properly prepared and disinfected according to medical standards. Hold the device by the ergonomic handle to perform the venipuncture. Once the flashback chamber indicates successful entry into the vessel, advance the catheter while retracting the needle. Secure the cannula in place and utilize the luer lock cap on the port for medication or fluid administration. Always dispose of the device in a sharps container immediately after use.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify the required gauge size for the specific patient population
- Ensure compatibility with existing luer lock infusion equipment
- Check the expiration date on the sterile packaging
- Confirm the intended duration of use aligns with peripheral catheter guidelines
Usage recommendations: This product is strictly for single-use only. Do not attempt to re-sterilize or reuse the cannula. Inspect the blister packaging for any signs of damage or compromise before opening to ensure the sterility of the device is maintained.
