Visual confirmation of catheter placement occurs due to a unique flashback feature. Flashback appears between the specially grooved needle and the catheter, providing medical staff with a higher certainty of proper catheter placement. Made of polyurethane, which is firm at room temperature and softer at body temperatures, patient comfort is enhanced without compromising proper technique.
