The ‘Argyle Polyurethane Umbilical Vessel Catheter, Single Lumen, 5 Fr/Ch (1.7 mm) x 15″ (38.1 cm) 0.33 mL – 8888160341’ by Covidien is a top-quality medical device designed to provide optimal care for premature infants. This catheter is part of the Argyle product portfolio, which includes single, dual, and triple lumen UVCs, as well as a full line of Argyle insertion trays.
The UVCs are designed to reduce the need for painful venipunctures, providing double or triple the access of a single lumen catheter. This allows for simultaneous therapies from one device. The catheter features clear, lipid-resistant Luer Lock hubs and color-coded I.V extensions on triple and dual lumen catheters.
This catheter is sterile and is not made with DEHP or natural rubber latex, ensuring patient safety. The polyurethane material provides increased maximum strength and flow rates. The catheter also features encapsulated X-ray opaque lines and numerical depth markings every 1 cm from 5-25 cm for precise placement.
