Description
Supercath Feature
- Supercath Neo, Safety Fistula Catheter, helps to reduce accidental
needlesticks with passive and fully-encased needle shield
- Applicable to AV fistula and AV graft
- Clamping the soft tube section with fingers or forceps enables connection to
blood line system without blood leakage
- Side holes on catheter allow optimal and smooth blood flow
- Single piece jointless catheter design prevents clotting and ensures a smooth flow
Supercath Benefit
- Minimizes risk of damage on vessel wall
- Can be used on nonideal access site
- Patients may move their arms during dialysis session
- Good alternative for patients with metal allergy
- Smaller sized needles can be used to minimize cannulation site trauma
- Decreased procedures related to cannulation complications such as damage to the blood vessel
- Increasing the access survival and cost saving related to access care
- No need to deal with the sharp needle at the end of the dialysis session
