The emergence of new technologies brings three major benefits: ① As long as the indwelling needle is correctly placed initially, the device can reduce the number of needle sticks; ② With just one intravenous line, both infusion and blood drawing can be achieved; ③ The intravenous line is easy to maintain, helping to reduce complications, and patients can use it for an extended period without needing replacement during their entire hospital stay.
