Company Summary

SkyDance addresses the complications related to catheter use with several unique innovations. We have put the catheter THROUGH the needle EXPECTING TO IMPROVE OUTCOMES as the catheter never CONTACTS the skin lowering the risk of infection. Next, a unique needle retraction ability so clinicians never handle a used needle, bevel only access expected to reduce the risk of phlebitis and infiltration, and a design to deliver fluids more efficiently.
