Information
The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood
Collection Set employs patented PentaPoint™ comfort 5-Bevel needle technology. Studies have shown that this design helps reduce the chance of a painful injection by creating a flatter,
thinner surface to help penetrate the skin with significantly greater ease. This new safety device has been shown to reduce penetration forces by up to 32% when compared to another leading blood collection set. In addition, its exclusive BD RightGauge™, Ultra-Thin wall technology allows for better blood flow due to the needle’s larger inner diameter. Therefore, clinicians can select a smaller gauge needle without sacrificing sample quality.
This technology can also improve tube fill time by up to 50%
when using the same gauge (a standard 23-G needle vs the
BD Vacutainer® UltraTouchTM Push Button Blood Collection
Set). The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouchTM Push Button Blood Collection
Set brings healthcare workers greater confidence and the
ability to know they can use the needle gauge that is most appropriate for their patients, with improved efficiency.
