A safety intravenous (IV) catheter assembly is disclosed which includes a safety device having a housing defining a cavity and distal and proximal openings, and a biasing member positioned within the cavity. The biasing member is movable from a first position to a second position to tilt the housing
A safety intravenous (IV) catheter assembly is disclosed which includes a safety device having a housing defining a cavity and distal and proximal openings, and a biasing member positioned within the cavity. The biasing member is movable from a first position to a second position to tilt the housing in relation to the needle when the needle tip is withdrawn through the distal opening of the housing to misalign the needle tip and the distal opening. A blocking arm is provided on the biasing member to prevent the biasing member from moving from the second position back to the first position.
1. A safety intravenous catheter assembly comprising: a needle assembly including a needle hub and a needle having a proximal end secured to the needle hub and a distal end defining a tip;a catheter assembly including a catheter hub and a catheter tube extending distally from the catheter hub; anda
1. A safety intravenous catheter assembly comprising: a needle assembly including a needle hub and a needle having a proximal end secured to the needle hub and a distal end defining a tip;a catheter assembly including a catheter hub and a catheter tube extending distally from the catheter hub; anda safety device including a housing defining a cavity, a distal opening and a proximal opening and a biasing member supported within the cavity, the distal and proximal openings being dimensioned to receive the needle, the biasing member including a stationary portion, a movable portion and a blocking arm, the movable portion being movable in relation to the stationary portion along a path of movement from a first position to a second position;wherein in an assembled state, the safety device is positioned between the needle hub and the catheter hub, the needle extends through the proximal and distal openings of the housing of the safety device and the catheter assembly, the biasing member is compressed between the needle and the housing such that the movable portion is in the first position in engagement with the needle and the blocking arm is spaced outwardly of the path of movement of the movable portion, and in a disassembled state, the tip of the needle is withdrawn through the distal opening into the cavity of the housing of the safety device and the movable portion of the biasing member is in the second position spaced further outwardly of the stationary portion such that the housing is tilted in relation to the needle to move the needle out of alignment with the distal opening of the housing, wherein in the disassembled state, the blocking arm is positioned between the movable portion and the stationary portion to prevent movement of the movable portion from the second position back to the first position. 2. The catheter assembly of claim 1, wherein the housing includes at least one post extending from one side of the housing across the cavity, the post being positioned to engage the stationary portion of the biasing member to secure the position of the biasing member within the housing. 3. The catheter assembly of claim 2, wherein the housing is formed from molded half-sections, the at least one post being formed on one of the half-sections and extending across the cavity towards a sidewall of the other of the half-sections. 4. The catheter assembly of claim 1, wherein the housing of the safety device includes a finger configured to releasably engage the catheter hub. 5. The catheter assembly of claim 4, wherein the finger includes radial projection which is configured to be received in a recess formed in the catheter hub to releasably secure the safety device to the catheter hub. 6. The safety device of claim 4, wherein the finger is radiused and is positioned to releasably engage a radiused surface on the catheter hub. 7. The safety device of claim 6, wherein the radiused finger has a different radius of curvature than the radius of curvature of the radiused surface on the catheter hub. 8. The safety device of claim 6, further including a second finger on the housing of the safety device positioned to engage a side of the catheter hub opposite to the radiused surface. 9. The catheter assembly of claim 1, wherein the biasing member is unitarily formed from a resilient material. 10. The catheter assembly of claim 9, wherein the resilient material is spring steel. 11. The catheter assembly of claim 1, wherein the needle hub includes a tab and the housing of the safety device defines a cutout positioned to receive the tab to properly orient the safety device in relation to the needle hub when the catheter assembly is in the assembled state. 12. The catheter assembly of claim 1, wherein the proximal end of the catheter hub defines a luer connector. 13. The catheter assembly of claim 1, wherein the portion of the movable portion of the biasing member in engagement with the needle includes a material having a low coefficient of friction. 14. A safety intravenous catheter assembly comprising: a needle assembly including a needle hub and a needle having a proximal end secured to the needle hub and a distal end defining a tip;a catheter assembly including a catheter hub and a catheter tube extending distally from the catheter hub; anda safety device including a housing defining a cavity, a distal opening and a proximal opening and a biasing member supported within the cavity, the distal and proximal openings being dimensioned to receive the needle, the biasing member including a stationary portion, a movable portion and a blocking arm, the movable portion being movable in relation to the stationary portion from a first position to a second position;wherein in an assembled state, the safety device is positioned between the needle hub and the catheter hub, the needle extends through the proximal and distal openings of the housing of the safety device and the catheter assembly, and the biasing member is compressed between the needle and the housing such that the movable portion is in the first position in engagement with the needle, and in a disassembled state, the tip of the needle is withdrawn through the distal opening into the cavity of the housing of the safety device and the movable portion of the biasing member is in the second position spaced further outwardly of the stationary portion such that the housing is tilted in relation to the needle to move the needle out of alignment with the distal opening of the housing, wherein in the disassembled state, the blocking arm is positioned between the movable portion and the stationary portion to prevent movement of the movable portion from the second position back to the first position, wherein the portion of the movable portion of the biasing member in engagement with the needle is at least partially covered by a UV cured adhesive. 15. A safety device comprising: a housing defining a cavity having a distal opening and a proximal opening, the distal and proximal openings being dimensioned to receive a needle of an intravenous catheter assembly; anda biasing member supported within the cavity, the biasing member having a stationary portion, a movable portion, and a blocking arm, the movable portion being movable in relation to the stationary portion along a path of movement from a first position in which the biasing member is compressed between the needle and the housing to a second position in which the movable portion is spaced further outwardly of the stationary portion to tilt the housing in relation to the needle and move the needle out of alignment with the distal opening of the housing;wherein as the movable portion moves from the first position to the second position, the blocking arm moves from a position spaced outwardly of the path of movement of the movable portion to a position in the path of movement of the movable portion to prevent movement of the movable portion from the second position back to the first position. 16. The safety device of claim 15, wherein the housing includes at least one post extending from one side of the housing across the cavity, the at least one post being positioned to engage the stationary portion of the biasing member. 17. The safety device of claim 15, wherein the housing of the safety device includes a finger configured to releasably engage a catheter hub. 18. The safety device of claim 17, wherein the finger is radiused. 19. The safety device of claim 15, wherein the biasing member is unitarily formed from a resilient material. 20.
