Intended use

• Aids venous access procedures while supporting infection control and patient comfort.

  • Top smooth button = quick release for rapid removal.

• Latex-free construction; non-sterile.

Variants and identification

• Single-patient-use: colored clip dedicated to one patient; discard and replace if soiled.
  • Adult: dark blue clip.
