Little Shield is a device that protects and calms infants during paediatric IV catheter usage, shielding them from injury and displacement caused by tugging or pulling while soothing them with playful patterns. To make the IV process easier for nurses, special connectors allow easy IV fluid delivery without removing the device, and a transparent design enables real-time monitoring.
