SAM IO Driver

The SAM IO system is made to save lives in an emergency and provide immediate vascular access when traditional IV lines are not possible to obtain. It is a must-have for a kit in high-pressure situations and is designed for use in emergencies, pre-hospital intervention scenarios, and hospital settings.

It’s a manually operated intraosseous access system where catheter placement can be achieved by repeatedly compressing the driver’s trigger assembly whilst gently guiding the needle into place. The repeated full trigger compression creates a rotational spin, which, when combined with gentle downward pressure, allows for a controlled IO placement. Once the needle is correctly positioned, the stylet can be removed to expose a standard luer-lock for extension set connection. When the set has been connected with aspiration verification, flushing and selected treatments can begin.

The SAM IO Driver is lightweight and made from polycarbonate material, designed for durability and ease of portability on the go. The driver does not rely on charging or battery power for operation and supports quick and intuitive needle application whilst providing a tactile feel for needle placement.

Please note: This product is a single item and does not include the stabiliser, adaptor, needles, or any training items. These must be purchased separately.
