Umbilical polyurethane catheter, totally radiopaque with Expert technology, containing the AgION™ antimicrobial agent made of silver ions integrated within the wall of the catheter.The Expert catheters release silver ions from their internal and external surfaces, so the catheter offers both extraluminal and intraluminal protective action.Because the silver ions are sensitive to light (photoreactive), the catheter is supplied within a green protective tubing. Numerical graduations every centimetre from 4 to 25 cm from the distal tip.
The catheter can be used for venous access (parenteral nutrition, drugs administrations…) or for arterial access (blood gas analysis, arterial pressure measurement). This catheter is supplied with a 3-way stopcock (Vyclic Color) with red and blue identification plugs : red for arterial access, blue for venous access.
