Abstract
A transfer device includes an introducer coupleable to a peripheral intravenous catheter, with the introducer having a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, a catheter having a proximal end portion and a distal end portion and defining a lumen, a secondary catheter having a proximal end portion and a distal end portion and defining a lumen, and an actuator receiving the proximal end portion of the catheter and the distal end portion of the secondary catheter. The actuator is moveable within introducer from a first position where the distal end portion of the catheter is positioned within the introducer to a second position where the distal end portion of the catheter is positioned outside of the introducer.
