摘要：A catheter insertion device (10) is provided for inserting an over-the-needlecatheter (50). The device includes an insertion needle (20) that is retractable into thehousing (30) of the device after use to prevent exposure to the contaminated needle. Aneedle retainer (40) releasably retains the needle in an extended position against therearward bias of the biasing element (60). The needle retainer engages the hub (54) ofthe catheter so that when the catheter is removed from the insertion device, the needleretainer automatically releases the needle. The biasing element then propels the needlerearward into the housing of the device.
