Mojo IV Infusion Starter Set
A field-ready, pre-packaged kit for IV access and saline-lock establishment — both 18G and 20G safety catheters plus a macro-drip administration set in one low-cube pouch.
What is the Mojo IV Infusion Starter Set? A field-ready, pre-packaged kit (SKU 80-100-20) for rapid IV access and saline-lock establishment in prehospital and austere environments. This TAA-compliant, Made-in-USA kit contains both 18-gauge and 20-gauge safety IV catheters plus a macro-drip IV administration set, vacuum-sealed in a low-cube rugged pouch for IFAK and kit integration.
Peripheral IV cannulation and fluid administration are invasive procedures performed only by appropriately trained and credentialed personnel under their scope of practice and local protocol. This page is product information, not a procedural how-to or substitute for accredited clinical training.

What It Is
Peripheral IV access is a foundational TCCC capability — required for fluid resuscitation, medication delivery, and blood-product administration. The challenge in tactical and prehospital settings is less the procedure than the accessibility of a complete, organized, sterile IV kit under stress. The Mojo IV Infusion Starter Set provides all required components in a single, pre-organized vacuum-sealed pouch.
Including both 18-gauge and 20-gauge safety catheters addresses clinical variability at the point of care: access conditions range from optimal in well-hydrated patients to difficult in hypovolemic casualties with collapsed peripheral veins. The 18G supports flow rates suitable for blood-product administration; the 20G offers an alternative when larger-bore access is not achievable. Carrying both eliminates the need to pre-select a gauge before reaching the patient.
The macro-drip administration set provides a complete IV line from bag to patient connector, supporting gravity-fed delivery or integration with pressure-infusion devices for rapid volume resuscitation. The vacuum-sealed, low-cube pouch (3.75" × 7" × 1") fits cleanly in MOLLE pouches, cargo pockets, and standard IFAKs. TAA compliance and U.S. manufacture meet procurement requirements for agencies and military medical officers sourcing from TAA-eligible manufacturers.
Pairing Recommendations
For complete IV resuscitation capability, pair the Mojo IV Infusion Starter Set with the BOA® IV Constricting Band for venous distension or the Needleless Saline Lock Kit for lock-only scenarios without immediate fluid administration. Browse the full IV/IO & Blood Transfusion collection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is included in the IV Infusion Starter Set?
A: The IV Infusion Starter Set is a pre-assembled package containing the essential components for initiating peripheral IV access in a field or tactical environment. Typical contents include IV catheter(s), extension set/administration set, tourniquet (for vein visualization), alcohol prep pads, tegaderm or securing tape, and a flush. For exact current contents, refer to the product listing or contact MED-TAC International — contents may be updated as clinical standards evolve.
Q: What gauge IV catheter is included in the Starter Set?
A: The IV Infusion Starter Set includes field-appropriate catheter gauges selected for tactical and emergency use. Standard field IV catheters are typically 18G or 16G for fluid resuscitation in adults. For exact gauge specifications, refer to the current product details or contact MED-TAC International, as component specifications may be updated.
Q: Is IV access in the field covered under TCCC guidelines?
A: IV access is a component of TCCC care under Circulation (the "C" of MARCH). TCCC guidelines allow for IV access in the Tactical Field Care phase when feasible and clinically indicated — primarily for fluid resuscitation in hemorrhagic shock and medication administration. IO access is also specified as an alternative when IV access cannot be rapidly established. The IV Infusion Starter Set provides the equipment required for the IV access component of field care protocols.
Q: Can this set be used for training IV cannulation skills?
A: Yes. The IV Infusion Starter Set can be used for cannulation skills practice on IV training arms or simulation sleeves (such as the SIMBODIES IV Cannulation SIM-Sleeve). However, for repeated training use, training-specific IV supplies are preferable to preserve the sterile operational components for field use. Training on proper catheter insertion, securing, and line management reduces procedure time and improves first-attempt success rates in operational environments.
