ActIV

ActIV is an innovative unique and patented platform of dual-action intravenous (IV) catheter that was developed by ActiVein.

The ActIV device is a safer IV catheter that replaces the standard conventional "hospital IV line" by enabling both fluid /medications infusion and blood withdrawal, using a single vein over an entire hospitalization period, whereas the currently used device allows, regularly, fluid infusion only.

In the highly competitive catheter industry, innovations occur quickly as compared to other industries. ActIV, while adding a major function to the most broadly used IV catheter, is made of the same top quality materials and makes use of the same insertion method of existing IV catheters. Its patent pending technology makes use of known techniques, broadly used in devices in other segments of the medical field. Therefore we can expect it to be enthusiastically and smoothly adopted by the medical community. Indeed, we have already received many positive inputs from medical professionals to this effect.

With ActIV, healthcare workers can withdraw blood from the hospital IV line -
without using a needle.

Advantage of The ActIV Devcie:
  • Increases safety for healthcare workers and patients - ActIV designed to minimize accidental needlesticks when injecting or infusing fluids/medications and when withdrawing blood.
    ActIV reduces the risk of Hematoma and exposure to Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HIV/AIDS.
  • "Once & Enough "- Eliminates the need for additional patients punctures
  • "In & Out" single solution- ActIV catheter enables both fluid/medications infusion and blood
    withdrawal for diagnostic purposes, using a single vein over an entire hospitalization period.
  • Less pain and discomfort for the patients.
  • A perfect solution to "Belonephobia" (Needle phobia) - a problem that 10% from world's population
    is dealing with.
  • Allows a better patient/medical healthcare staff relation.
  • Substantial savings on hospital costs.
  • Save costs on medical equipment : needles, elastic bands etc.
  • Frees up time of the usually over-worked medical staff.
  • Saves costs of post-exposure treatment for the Healthcare workers exposed to infectious diseases following needlestick injuries.
  • Save costs for the Hospitals in particular and the health care system in general on liability, compensation costs, wages and time lost by these workers.
