BD India launches blood collection device UltraTouch
The device is targeted to minimise patient pain
BD (Becton, Dickinson, and Company) has recently launched the BD Vacutainer UltraTouch Push Button Blood Collection Set in India. The BD Vacutainer UltraTouch Push Button Blood Collection Set is designed with BD RightGauge technology, enabling the use of a ‘thinner’ needle for blood collection and combined with BD PentaPoint Technology, it results in significant decrease in insertion pain for the patient. Noteworthy to mention that the BD Vacutainer UltraTouch comes with the BD Push Button Technology which reduces the chances of getting needle injury by 88 per cent.
Atul Grover, MD, BD India/South Asia said, “Blood collection is often the first invasive procedure for patients that plays a critical role in the overall patient satisfaction and experience score. Aligned with our purpose of advancing the world of health, we are committed to developing products that improve patient experience at every stage of healthcare delivery. And we are confident that the BD Vacutainer UltraTouch which is built with advanced technology will enable a better patient experience owing to single prick success and reduced pain during blood collection.”
