  IV Cannula: The IV cannula, also known as an IV catheter, is a thin, hollow tube that is inserted into a patient's vein to establish access to IV therapy. It is typically made of medical-grade materials such as plastic or stainless steel. The Medicath IV Cannula is specifically designed by the Medicath brand.

  Needle and Catheter: The IV cannula consists of a needle and a catheter. The needle is used to puncture the skin and access the vein initially. Once the needle is inserted, the catheter is advanced into the vein, while the needle is removed, leaving the catheter in place for IV access.

  Cannula Size: IV cannulas come in different sizes, typically measured in gauge. The size selection depends on the patient's condition, the purpose of the IV therapy, and the vein's size and location.

  3-Way Stopcock: A 3-Way Stopcock is a device that allows for the diversion or control of fluid flow through multiple channels. It typically consists of a rotating valve with three openings, each connected to a different IV line or tubing. The stopcock enables the healthcare professional to control the flow, change the direction, or perform multiple functions with the IV solution using a single access point.
