IV butterflies in general: IV butterflies are sterile, single-use medical devices. They come with a butterfly needle, which is connected to a flexible tube. The tube is equipped with a Luer Lock or Luer slip connector at its proximal end, allowing for a secure and stable connection to the infusion line.

Their use includes blood sampling and quick small injections in patients with spasms and in pediatric patients. They are primarily used for venipuncture and are also known as winged infusion sets or butterfly sets. The choice of set depends on the size of the veins and the medication being administered.
