Successful insertion of an intraosseous needle is only the first step in establishing reliable vascular access. Proper stabilization is equally important, especially when the patient needs to be moved, transported, or evacuated.
The SAM IO Intraosseous Needle Stabilizer IO740-1P is designed to provide additional stabilization of an inserted intraosseous needle and protect it from unwanted movement. The stabilizer helps maintain the needle in the correct position and reduces the risk of displacement or accidental removal when the patient is moved.
This is particularly important in emergency and tactical medical settings, where the patient may need to be lifted onto a stretcher, transferred into a vehicle, or evacuated over uneven terrain. In such situations, even a correctly inserted needle may be exposed to external forces, making secure stabilization important for maintaining established intraosseous access.
The stabilizer is part of the SAM IO Intraosseous Access System and is used with an inserted SAM IO needle. Its design helps stabilize the needle at the insertion site while maintaining access for subsequent procedures.
