Features and benefits
Veress™ technology
- the springy, blunt obturator overhangs the sharp, distal tip and protects the patient and user from perforation or injury
- Color change to red when the sharp distal tip is exposed
- self-locking valve
- Hose bypass with three-way stopcock provides connection option to drainage / extension sets
Advantages of the self-sealing valve
- Maintains a closed system
- allows the repositioning of the puncture needle
- undesired penetration of air or escape of effusion is prevented
Pigtail catheter
- Self-aligning and resistant to occlusions
- Silicone coating ensures easy percutaneous insertion, minimizes the possible "accordion effect" and reduces tissue trauma
- Centimeter depth marking enables safe catheter placement (catheter length of 160 mm)
- Barium sulfate strip serves as X-ray contrast agent
- Luer lock connection allows convenient removal of the pigtail catheter from the valve device
