Pleural drainage catheter SKATER™

thoracicbox of 5 units5 FR

SKATER™ Centesis Catheters are designed for percutaneous fluid aspirations and small volume drainage procedures. Needle with echogenic tip for precise placement under imaging Tapered catheter tip ensures good transition between catheter and needle to facilitate smooth insertion Four radial side holes on the catheter facilitate drainage within small cavities Hollow stylet needle permits aspiration of fluid prior to needle removal Vent plug allows air to exit catheter during insertion and protects against fluid leakage Hemostatic valve minimizes risk of leakage while allowing for reinsertion of a needle or guidewire Green color indicator transitions to red when the sharp distal tip is exposed Blunt retractable stylet reduces risk of perforation Position markers ensure accurate placement Airlock valve reduces risk of pneumothorax and fluid leakage Position markers ensure accurate placement
