What is it indicated for?

The REVOLUTION Holder is used in blood drawing procedures. It is used with PUNCTUR-GUARD® Blood Collection Needles only, and is compatible with standard blood sample tubes as well as pediatric inserts.

The REVOLUTION Holder should be used by health care workers experienced in phlebotomy.

At the end of a blood draw, the holder dial is rotated clockwise 90°. This rotation activates the safety mechanism of the PUNCTUR-GUARD® needle, which reduces the probability of an accidental needle stick.

The needle can be eliminated quickly by a push on the release button. The holder is re-usable for up to 100 draws, including 20 cleanings.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
