Zusammenfassung:A catheter insertion device that allows for insertion of a catheter within vasculature of a patient is disclosed. The catheter insertion device includes a handle and a needle cannula held within the handle. A guidewire is partially disposed within the needle cannula. The guidewire is slidable within a lumen of the needle cannula. A first actuator is connected to the handle and the guidewire, and is movable relative to the handle to move the guidewire relative to the handle. A catheter and catheter hub are configured to move relative to the handle and slide over the cannula during deployment of the catheter into the vasculature of the patient. A needle safety clip covers a sharp distal tip of the cannula following removal of the needle cannula from the catheter hub.
