Whether you’re drawing blood or starting an IV, choosing the right device can make all the difference. One device that continues to prove essential in clinical settings is the safety scalp vein set.

What Is a Safety Scalp Vein Set?

Also known as a "butterfly needle," the scalp vein set is designed for venous access — typically for administering IV medications or for drawing blood when connected to a luer adapter. The addition of a safety mechanism helps reduce the risk of needlestick injuries, protecting healthcare providers during and after use.
