The push-button safety mechanism instantly helps protect you against needlestick injury. Its in-vein activation reduces risk of healthcare worker exposure to a contaminated needle, provides easy activation without patient discomfort, and is ideal for use in high-risk environments. The one-handed safety activation of the push button allows for activation of the safety mechanism while still attending to the patient/venipuncture site, and provides easier, safer blood collection for the healthcare worker, with no compromise to patient care.

The BD Vacutainer Eclipse Blood Collection Needle consists of a BD PrecisionGlide Blood Collection Needle integrated with a safety shield aligned to the bevel-up position. This integration ensures that EVERY BD Vacutainer Eclipse Blood Collection Needle has its safety feature built in, eliminating the need to attach a secondary safety accessory. Immediate, one-handed activation of the shield helps protect from accidental needlestick injuries and frees the user's other hand to maintain patient contact.
