Vascu-PICC Catheters |

Indicated
for total parenteral nutrition, antibiotic therapy, and pain management drugs.
The Vascu-PICC™’s easy insertion eliminates the need for local anesthesia and
surgical cut downs and/or repeated venipuncture.

Superior Flow: Standard PICC catheters made with silicone
are thick wall cannulas. Our polyurethane Vascu-PICC™’s are kink resistant, thin
wall cannulas that provide higher flows than the same sized silicone PICC catheters.

Superior Venipuncture: Traditional PICC catheters
utilize a venipuncture insertion consisting of a Tearaway Sheath over a large
bore needle. Typically, a 5FR PICC uses a 14ga. needle. With our Seldinger Technique
Vascu-PICC™, venipuncture is achieved with a 21ga. needle.

Firm/Flexible Guidewire: The mini mandrel wire (.018”)
is rigid enough to stabilize the insertion of the sheath dilator and to easily
pass the Vascu-PICC™ into position. The guidewire tip is soft and super flexible,
minimizing trauma and facilitating catheter tip placement. |
