How to think about this product

When evaluating these catheters, procurement staff should note the 16G size is suitable for high-flow applications such as trauma or surgical fluid resuscitation. The choice between FEP and Ocrilon polyurethane allows facilities to balance cost against clinical outcomes like phlebitis reduction.
