I work in a NICU in GA, and we are having MAJOR problems receiving 26g abbocaths for our IV starts on small premies. I was wondering if anyone else was having this same problem, and if you have any...
The company we use is Abbocath.. they don't have wings on them. Just little white caths. WONDERFUL for those TINY veins. It's the only IV cath our Neo's will use to place
We have received our 26g caths again! I can't believe there are some NICU's using only 24g caths on micro premies! 26g caths are so much better for those hard-to-find veins.
