BD Vacutainer Eclipse Blood Collection Needle 21 G

The BD Vacutainer Eclipse blood collection needle 21 G provides healthcare professionals with a practical and safety-engineered solution for routine venous blood collection. Designed for multisample blood collection procedures, this sterile needle combines a familiar blood collection format with an integrated protective shield intended to help reduce the possibility of accidental needlestick injuries.

This model has a 21-gauge, thin-wall needle measuring 1.25 inches, or approximately 3.18 centimetres. Its green safety shield follows the commonly recognized colour identification for a 21 G needle, helping professionals quickly identify the appropriate size in an organized clinical environment.

Integrated safety shield

The BD Vacutainer® Eclipse™ needle incorporates a safety shield that can be activated with one hand immediately after the needle is withdrawn from the vein. Once moved into its protective position, the shield covers the used needle. An audible click helps confirm that the safety mechanism has been properly activated.

This one-handed activation technique supports efficient working procedures while helping reduce exposure to the contaminated sharp. The used needle must still be discarded immediately in an approved sharps disposal container according to the healthcare facility’s policies and applicable local regulations.

Designed for multisample blood collection

The BD Vacutainer Eclipse blood collection needle 21 G is intended for use in multisample venous blood collection procedures. Its thin-wall construction supports efficient blood flow while maintaining the familiar handling expected from a standard blood collection needle.

The needle is designed for use with compatible blood collection equipment. Holders and evacuated blood collection tubes are sold separately unless specifically stated otherwise. Healthcare professionals should always verify the compatibility of all components before beginning a procedure.

This product may be suitable for hospitals, medical clinics, diagnostic laboratories, mobile blood collection services, nursing services, physicians’ offices and other professional healthcare settings throughout Canada and the USA.

Sterile and intended for single use

Each needle is supplied sterile and is sterilized using gamma irradiation. It is a disposable, single-use medical device. Do not reuse, clean or resterilize the needle. Reusing a single-use blood collection needle may compromise sterility, interfere with the safety mechanism and expose patients or professionals to avoidable risks.

Before use, inspect the individual packaging carefully. Do not use the product if its package is open, damaged or otherwise compromised. Healthcare professionals must follow the manufacturer’s instructions, their professional training and the infection-prevention procedures established by their organization.
