Description
Key Features:
Three-Lumen Catheter (7 Fr. x 16 cm): The core of the kit is a multi-lumen CVC, typically 7 French (Fr.) in diameter and 16 cm in length. This allows for simultaneous infusion of multiple fluids, medications, or blood products, and pressure monitoring, through separate lumens, minimizing the risk of incompatibility or mixing.
Pressure Injectable: A critical feature, meaning the catheter is designed to withstand the high pressures associated with power injection of contrast media for diagnostic imaging procedures (e.g., CT scans). This eliminates the need for a separate venous access, streamlining workflow and enhancing patient comfort.
Arrowg+ard Blue Plus® Antimicrobial Surface Treatment: The catheter features a surface treatment that incorporates chlorhexidine and silver sulfadiazine (or similar antimicrobial agents). This is a key safety feature aimed at reducing the risk of catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs), a common and serious complication of CVCs.
Comprehensive Kit Components: The "XPN1A" in the part number indicates a complete procedure kit. It typically includes:
Catheter: The main multi-lumen catheter.
Spring-Wire Guide: A Nitinol spring-wire guide with both straight soft and "J" tips for easy and safe insertion, often with an Arrow® GlideWheel™ Wire Advancer.
Introducer Needles: Various needles, including an echogenic needle for ultrasound guidance during insertion.
Syringes: Multiple syringes for flushing, aspiration, and local anesthetic administration, including pre-filled saline syringes.
Tissue Dilator: To facilitate the insertion of the catheter.
ChloraPrep® Applicator: A pre-filled applicator for skin antisepsis (2% CHG and 70% IPA).
SharpsAway® Disposal Cups: For safe disposal of sharps.
Surgical Apparel: Components for clinician protection such as a mask with eye shield, bouffant cap, and an impervious gown.
Suture: For securing the catheter in place.
Local Anesthetic (e.g., Lidocaine HCl Solution): For patient comfort during the procedure.
SecondSite™ Adjustable Hub: For securing the catheter at the insertion site.
Gauze Pads and Dressing: For post-insertion care.
Safety Scalpel, Needle Holder: For sterile technique during insertion.
Radiopaque Polyurethane: The catheter material is radiopaque, meaning it is visible under X-ray, allowing for easy confirmation of proper placement.
Latex-Free: The kit components are typically not made with natural rubber latex, reducing the risk of allergic reactions in sensitive patients.
Sterile and Single-Use: Each kit is sterile and intended for single patient use to prevent cross-contamination.
Uses:
Central Venous Access: Provides access to the central venous system for a variety of critical medical interventions.
Administration of Medications and Fluids: Allows for the continuous or intermittent infusion of various intravenous fluids, medications (especially those that are vesicants or require rapid dilution), and blood products.
Hemodynamic Monitoring: Can be used to measure central venous pressure (CVP), providing important information about a patient's fluid status and cardiac function.
Blood Sampling: Facilitates repeated blood draws without additional venipuncture, which is beneficial for patients requiring frequent lab tests.
Nutritional Support: Used for the administration of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) to patients who cannot receive adequate nutrition orally or enterally.
Emergency Medicine and Critical Care: Essential for rapid and reliable vascular access in emergency situations, intensive care units (ICUs), and other critical care settings.
Pressure Injection of Contrast Media: Specifically designed for the high-pressure injection of contrast agents during diagnostic imaging procedures like CT scans, eliminating the need for a separate peripheral IV.
