The PIVO™ Pro Needle-free Blood Collection Device is designed to achieve the first and only compatibility with integrated and long peripheral IV catheters, including the new Nexiva™ Closed IV Catheter System with NearPort™ IV Access in addition to traditional short IV catheters.

The PIVO™ Pro Needle-free Blood Collection Device is designed to achieve the first and only compatibility with integrated and long peripheral IV catheters, including the new Nexiva™ Closed IV Catheter System with NearPort™ IV Access in addition to traditional short IV catheters.

PIVO is a single use device which threads a small, empty, sterile flow tube through the SPC into the vein to enable a blood collection. The PIVO device does not contain saline prior to blood collection; however PIVO is threaded through a saline locked SPC.

FDA-approved PIVO is a needle-free device that connects to the IV that has been placed in the patient’s arm, alleviating the need for patients to endure additional venipuncture, or needle sticks, to draw their blood.

In a 2-year, multicenter (23 hospitals) retrospective study, a novel blood collection system that collects blood specimens through existing inpatient IVs without a needle (PIVO, Velano Vascular) was compared with the current standard of care, in regards to its effect on specimen quality and IV catheter longevity.

The BD Closed IV Peripheral Line Draw Solution Transform vascular access care with the next-generation technology, PIVO™ Pro Needle-free Blood Collection Device and Nexiva™ Closed IV Catheter System with NearPort™ IV Access

Nov 2, 2023 · With 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the new PIVOTM Pro Needle-free Blood Collection Device features design improvements to achieve the first and only compatibility with integrated and long peripheral IV catheters, including the new NexivaTM Closed IV Catheter System with NearPortTM IV Access.

Mar 8, 2017 · PIVO is a single-use, disposable device that enables consistent, high quality blood samples from indwelling peripheral IV lines, allowing hospitals to reduce reliance on repeated needle sticks and central line access for blood collection.

Nov 3, 2023 · With the capacity to draw blood samples directly from a patient’s peripheral IV line using PIVO Pro, the new solution integrates the clinical benefits demonstrated by the integrated closed Nexiva Catheter System. These benefits include reduced catheter complications and longer dwell times.

BD is transforming clinical workflows and their outcomes by combining the proprietary technologies of closed IV catheter systems that have shown to improve dwell times and reduce complications with a needle-free blood collection device to overcome traditional IV and blood collection challenges.
