Features
Optimal flow begins with correct placement, and that can be challenging. The Crescent jugular dual lumen catheter was designed to address those challenges with novel features that make positioning and securement easier for you.
Radiopaque markers for improved visualization
Visible under radiographic imaging, radiopaque markers aid in positioning the catheter and identifying drainage sites, infusion port, catheter tip, and axial orientation of the port.
- SVC drainage marker
- Radiopaque markers at infusion site
- IVC drainage marker
- Catheter tip marker
Enhancements in port placement, lumen design, and tip geometry give the Crescent catheter optimal flow efficiency. This enables you to realize higher flow at lower pressure and allows for lower rates of hemolysis and recirculation.
ENHANCEMENTS FOR OPTIMAL FLOWCrescent-shaped lumen helps optimize pressure flow performance, and advanced materials make the catheter strong, flexible, and kink-resistant.
PROMOTES DIRECTIONAL EFFICIENCYLarge infusion port, combined with radiopaque markers for placement accuracy, help ensure flow is directed toward the tricuspid valve — and pulmonary artery.
HELPS MINIMIZE RECIRCULATIONDrainage and reinfusion ports are designed to mimic the body’s natural flow ratios to minimize recirculation while maintaining flow.
MAINTAINING DESIRED FLOWMaintain your desired flow with features that keep the catheter securely in place during patient ambulation. Enhanced visualization makes it easy for you to verify that the device remains properly positioned.
- Visual verification of placement
Improved visualization helps you quickly identify the catheter tip and orientation of the reinfusion port, and verify that accurate positioning is maintained over the course of the case. - Extended tip design helps maintain position
The tip of the catheter sits deeper in the IVC, reducing the chance of migration.
- In select circumstances, sutures may be placed on the connectors.
- Bifurcation suture site provides security against catheter translations.
- Integrated suture site contains special reinforcement to protect against catheter damage.
- Optional suture collar can be placed at a desired location on the catheter body before or after catheter insertion.
