Description

Multicath2 UP is a XRO polyurethane central venous catheter introduced by Seldinger technique.
It consists of 2 lumens completely separated on the total length of the catheter. Each lumen leads, at the distal tip of the catheter, to a distinct hole. At the proximal end, the lumens of the catheter are connected to extension tubes of different lengths. Each extension tube includes a different coloured hub and is marked “Distal” and “Proximal” so as to identify easily the different infusion lines.

Multicath2 UP is available in 4 lengths: 12.5cm (code 157.072), 16cm (code 157.172), 20cm (code 157.272), or 30cm (code 157.372).
It is presented in a rigid blister pack containing:

1 polyurethane catheter (totally radiopaque) with fixation wings and centimetric graduations from 9cm from distal tip. Smooth distal end,
1 safety needle (Seldisafe) 18G, 70mm, to avoid needlestick injuries,
1 safety scalpel,
1 BLS valve (Blood Less System) on the Seldisafe to limit blood loss and air embolism,
1 adaptor for pressure transducer,
1 Teflon-coated "J" Nitinol guidewire (particularly kink-resistant) with guide-advancer,
1 dilator 8.5Fr / Length: 100mm,
2 caps,
1 5ml syringe,
1 supplementary fixation wing for 16, 20, and 30cm catheters,
1 ECG cable (Combcard) for 16, 20, and 30cm catheters.
