ABSTRACT:
This invention is directed to introducing a catheter tube into a vein over a vein puncture needle once vein puncture has been established by providing an upstanding flat drive plate secured to the hub of a catheter tube with its major axis transverse to the axis of the needle and catheter so a quick striking force may be thrust upon the plate to force the catheter into the vein over the vein puncture needle.
The potential energy of a compressed coiled spring or a resilient plastic member may supply the thrust energy to drive the upstanding flat drive plate and its entrained catheter tube forwardly over the vein puncture needle.
