The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of ViTal, a peripheral intravenous catheter with a glide-on-contact design of the plastic canula tip, in peripheral intravenous catheterization in individuals requiring intravenous therapy or blood sampling. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the first attempt success rate of the peripheral intravenous catheterization done using the study device? Participants will be asked to grade the pain they experienced when attempts were made to insert the study device into their peripheral vein.

First attempt success rate
Proportion, in percent, of subjects with successful peripheral intravenous catheterization Successful PIVC is defined as withdrawal of non-pulsatile blood or infusion of saline without evidence of extravasation. Failed PIVC is defined as extravasation with initial infusion, inability to draw blood, physician or nurse intervention for access or inability to obtain access.
