Disposable IV Cannula intravenous catheter with injection port 18G/20G/22G/24G
1. IV Cannula or Intravenous Catheter:
- Purpose: An IV cannula is a flexible tube inserted into a
patient's vein to provide intravenous access for the administration
of fluids, medications, or blood products. It can also be used for
blood draws.
- Material: IV cannulas are typically made of materials like
plastic, Teflon, or other biocompatible materials.
2. Disposable Design:
- Single-Use: The term "disposable" indicates that the IV cannula
is intended for single-use only. After use, it is disposed of to
reduce the risk of infection or contamination.
3. Injection Port:
- Purpose: The injection port is a feature that allows additional
medications or fluids to be administered through the same IV access
point without the need for needle reinsertion.
4. Gauge Sizes (18G, 20G, 22G, 24G):
- Gauge: The gauge of the IV cannula refers to the diameter of the
tube. The choice of gauge depends on factors such as the patient's
condition, the type of fluids or medications to be administered,
and the size of the patient's veins. Larger gauges (e.g., 18G)
allow for a faster flow rate, while smaller gauges (e.g., 24G) may
be used for more delicate procedures or for patients with smaller
veins.

Is IV line and cannula same?
Peripheral line placement, also referred to as peripheral
intravenous (IV) cannulation, is the insertion of an indwelling
single-lumen plastic conduit across the skin into a peripheral
vein. Such devices may be referred to as peripheral IV (or venous)
lines, cannulas, or catheters depending on the country.
What is the size of cannula?
According to a 2015 study, the most common sizes range from 14 to
22 gauge. The higher the gauge number, the smaller the cannula.
Different sized cannulas move liquid through them at different
rates, known as flow rates. A 14 gauge cannula can pass
approximately 270 milliliters (ml) of saline in 1 minute.
What is the smallest IV cannula?
The biggest diameter for IV catheters is 14G and the smallest is
26G
