Details: Large silicone septum for easier needle insertion Dual safety edges prevent needle slippage Radiopaque catheter with length markings Very soft catheter tip Bio-compatible materials (titanium, silicone and poly-urethane) MR-compatible up to 3 Tesla; latex-free A.M.I. Clip-a-Port Systems are also suitable for power injection at a maximum recommended flow rate of 5 ml/s and pressure not exceeding 325 psi (2240 kPa). Special design features prevent catheter punctures and guard against needle slippage. And all ports feature an integrated clip on the base of the port for fast, easy attachment to tissue. The A.M.I. Clip-a-Port System is based on a unique design of clip-on infusion port for the venous supply of pharmaceuticals, fluid and nutrient solutions. All models have a specially-designed base plate with an integrated clip, which can be slid under the fascia to fasten the port – no sutures and no time-wasting! How do I attach the A.M.I.® Clip-a-Port to the tissue? The A.M.I.® Clip-a-Port is simply clipped on – hence the name. Using the clip instead of sutures saves an average of 10 minutes per port implantation. All you have to do is slip the clip beneath the fascia. Can I also suture A.M.I.’s® Clip-a-Port like conventional ports? If you prefer to, you can place one suture. Simply pull the suture through the gap between the clip and the port’s base, then suture it to the tissue. Why is polyurethane the best material for catheters? Polyurethane is highly bend resistant and therefore easier to implant. After implantation and exposure to body temperature, it then becomes softer and more malleable and so guards against venous perforation.
