Enhanced Patient Care

 

Enhance patient care with

an all-in-one closed IV

catheter system

BD Nexiva™ Closed IV Catheter System is part of a broad portfolio of closed, integrated peripheral IV catheters (PIVCs) designed with the patient and clinician experience in mind.

Clinician Safety and Satisfaction

Clinicians prefer closed catheter systems

Overall clinician satisfaction has been shown to be significantly higher with Nexiva™ Catheter System compared to a non-integrated, open PIVC.*,1

The integrated system is designed with clinician safety in mind:

  • Clinically demonstrated to reduce the risk of blood exposure by 98%2
  • Minimizes risk of contamination with pre-attached extension tube that contains blood upon insertion and serves as a secondary flash chamber to support first-attempt insertion success
  • Automatic shielding provides passive safety of needle upon removal as recommended by Infusion Therapy Standards of Practice3

 

*compared to a non-integrated PIVC in a clinical study

catheter system

Watch this video to see the differences in design between the integrated Nexiva™ Catheter System and a non-integrated PIVC without blood control technology, which can risk missed insertion, blood leakage, or touch contamination.

Reduced Complications

Elevate care while helping reduce complications

Complications may compromise patient care and increase cost, including interrupting drug administration, delaying procedures, and removing and reinserting a new catheter, increasing the risk of catheter failure with each subsequent insertion.4–6

Nexiva™ Catheter System has been clinically demonstrated to significantly reduce catheter-related complications in a number of studies:2,7

Reduced Cost

A budget-friendly catheter solution

In a 2014 clinical study, the longer dwell time§ of Nexiva™ Catheter System led to a cost reduction of approximately $1 million per year per 1,000 beds compared with an open system.7

Longer median dwell time compared to an open system4,7

Nexiva™ Catheter System eliminates the need to purchase many separate components. Every Nexiva™ Catheter System contains a pre-attached extension tube and built-in stabilization platform. Nexiva™ Catheter System is offered in configurations containing BD MaxZero™ Needle-free Connectors and BD Q-Syte™ Needle-free Connectors.

Improved Patient Experience

Support 1st attempt insertion success

IV catheter failure rates lie between 35% and 50%. Compounding this issue, subsequent PIVCs inserted after treatment failure are more likely to fail again, potentially perpetuating the challenges and dissatisfaction for the patient.6

Higher first attempt insertion success may be a relief to patients. Studies have shown:

Nexiva™ Catheter System Portfolio

Nexiva™ Catheter System is offered in four configurations. The dual port configurations allow for the simultaneous administration of two compatible solutions as close to the patient as possible. The single port configurations allow for the administration of one solution, as is common with most PIVCs.

Nexiva™ Catheter System is offered in configurations containing BD MaxZero™ Needle-free Connectors and BD Q-Syte™ Needle-free Connectors. MaxZero™ Needle-free Connectors are premium needle-free connectors and are offered on both dual port and single port configurations. BD Q-Syte™ Needle-free Connectors are also offered on dual port configuration.

Clinical evidence

Nexiva™ Catheter System has been shown to deliver higher clinician satisfaction, improved clinician safety and a reduction in overall complication rates versus non-integrated, open systems.1–3

Nexiva™ Catheter System is backed by evidence in peer-reviewed journals from as early as 20094 to as recently as 2024.5

Nexiva™ Diffusics Closed IV Catheter System is also backed by peer-reviewed journals and infusion guidelines. Infusion Therapy Standards of Practice state to consider a fenestrated catheter for a contrast-based radiographic study and in coronary CTA. Nexiva Diffusics™ Catheter System is the only peripheral IV catheter with a diffusion catheter tip specifically designed for power injection.
