Premium Stainless Steel Pen Type Flashback Needle with Visual Flashback Technology and Ultra-Sharp Tri-Beveled Tip for Venous Blood Collection

1. Product Overview & Description

The Pen Type Flashback Needle is a premium medical consumable specifically engineered for multi-tube venous blood sampling. The assembly comprises a high-grade medical stainless steel cannula, a transparent color-coded hub, a prominent flashback observation window, and a highly elastic protective rubber sleeve.

The core innovation of this product lies in its Visual Flashback technology. The needle hub is molded from an optically clear medical-grade polymer. Upon successful venipuncture, blood enters the hub instantly and becomes visible through the transparent window. This design provides healthcare professionals with immediate visual confirmation of a successful vein entry, effectively eliminating blind punctures, minimizing patient discomfort, and optimizing clinical workflow efficiency.

Classified as a Class II medical device, this product is manufactured using fully automated equipment in ISO-certified cleanrooms. Each needle is individually packaged and undergoes strict sterilization to ensure it is completely sterile and pyrogen-free.

2. Intended Use & Applications

This product is extensively utilized by global healthcare institutions, medical examination centers, clinical laboratories, and Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for the following applications:

1. Multi-Tube Vacuum Blood Collection: Functions seamlessly with vacuum needle holders and tubes, facilitating continuous, multiple-sample collection from a single venipuncture.

2. Venous Blood Sampling: Used for collecting high-quality blood specimens intended for clinical biochemistry, immunology, hematology, and coagulation testing.

3. Difficult Vein Access: Highly recommended for pediatric, geriatric, and oncology patients with compromised, thin, or rolling veins where immediate puncture feedback is critical.

4. Advantages

• Instant Flashback Confirmation: The engineered clear flashback chamber provides instant visual proof of successful venipuncture, eliminating guesswork and enhancing clinical success rates.

• Ultra-Sharp Tri-Beveled Tip: The needle tip features advanced geometric bevel grinding coated with a medical-grade silicone lubricant. This ensures minimal penetration force, smooth tissue entry, and reduced patient trauma.

• ISO Color-Coded Hubs: Hub colors strictly comply with international gauge standards (e.g., 21G Green), allowing clinical staff to accurately identify the required specification instantly during high-paced operations.

• Highly Elastic Rubber Sleeve: The non-patient end needle is covered with a premium medical rubber sleeve that recoils instantly to seal blood flow when tubes are switched, ensuring leak-free performance and preventing cross-contamination.

• Global Regulatory Compliance: Fully compliant with CE and ISO 13485 standards, meeting stringent industrial and laboratory import specifications worldwide for hassle-free customs clearance.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is a "Flashback Needle" and how does it differ from standard blood collection needles?

A1: With standard needles, clinicians must wait until blood reaches the tube or tubing to confirm a correct hit. A flashback needle features a transparent hub chamber that fills with blood the exact millisecond the needle enters the vein, giving immediate feedback. This is ideal for difficult or fragile veins.

Q2: What sizes do you offer, and how are the hub colors designated?

A2: We offer a comprehensive size range from 21G to 25G. Each gauge follows the international standard color coding: 21G is Green, 22G is Black, 23G is Blue, 24G is Yellow, and 25G is Pink.

Q3: How is the product packaged, and do you support private labeling (OEM)?

A3: Every single needle is sterile and individually blister-packaged. Backed by our robust manufacturing capability of 1,000,000 pieces per week, we fully support international bulk orders and provide customized OEM packaging, boxing, and labeling options to meet proprietary brand requirements.
