Embodiment Construction
[0050] In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a catheter, an introducer, and an actuator. The catheter has a proximal portion and a distal portion and defines a lumen therethrough. The introducer has a proximal portion and a distal portion, and defines an interior volume configured to movably receive a catheter. The distal portion of the introducer has a lock configured to couple the introducer to the indwelling peripheral intravenous line. The actuator is movably coupled to the introducer and has a first portion disposed outside the introducer and a second portion disposed within the interior space of the introducer and coupled to the proximal end portion of the catheter. The actuator is configured to move relative to the introducer to move the catheter between a first position in which the catheter is disposed within the introducer and a second position in which The distal portion of the catheter is disposed beyond the distal portion of the introducer such that when th...
