Abstract
A shield for a needle of a peripheral intravenous catheter or other IV catheter system is provided. The shield may be formed of a single piece of material that may be bent to form a top portion, a bottom portion, a proximal portion, a top distal portion and a bottom distal portion. The proximal portion may form a proximal needle opening and the top or bottom distal portion may form a distal needle opening to allow a needle to extend through the shield when the shield is positioned within the lumen of a catheter adapter. When the distal tip of the needle is withdrawn proximally, the shield may transition from an unlocked position to a locked position in which the distal tip will be retained within the shield.
