Features of Catheter:
- PolyFlow Polyurethane catheter minimizes outer/inner diameter ratio and maximizes flow rate
- PolyFlow Polyurethane catheter is kink-resistant, biocompatible and radiopaque
- Smaller outer diameter than silicone catheters with the same internal diameter
- Smaller introducer than silicone catheters with the same internal diameter
- High tensile and shear strength designed to withstand high pressure
- Firm at room temperature for easier advancement into the vein with silicone-like softness at body temperature
- Surface structure shown to be lower in platelet adhesion
