A Fast Clinical solution

The Arrow™ EZ-IO™ Intraosseous Vascular Access System

When every moment matters, it’s time to rethink DVA.

In a medical emergency, you may be ready but unfortunately some veins are not. The Arrow™ EZ-IO™ System supports your success by enabling fast5 access when you encounter patients with difficult vascular access.

The Arrow™ EZ-IO™ System provides immediate access via the intraosseous route5 for DVA cases that are emergent, urgent, or medically necessary, such as cardiac, shock, respiratory, and neurologic cases.

It provides a reliable bridge6 until longer-term vascular access can be established,7 with up to 48-hour dwell time.**

Can your DVA patients afford to wait for IV access?

It’s time to think of intraosseous (IO) access earlier.

In patients with DVA, central venous catheter (CVC) access and peripheral IV (PIV) access can take longer and are less likely to be successful when compared with IO:
