Product Specification

CVC Kit Double-Lumen 8 Fr x 20 cm Sterile Introducer Needle 18 GA

Product Introduction

As a premier manufacturer of interventional medical devices, our Double-Lumen Central Venous Catheter (CVC) Kit is a precision-engineered solution for intensive care, hemodynamic monitoring, and complex infusion therapy. Featuring an 8 Fr x 20 cm catheter paired with a high-performance 18 GA Introducer Needle, this kit is designed to provide efficient multi-channel access while minimizing vascular trauma. Fully compliant with CE, FDA, and ISO13485 standards, it is the professional choice for ICU, Emergency, and Surgical environments.

Core Advantages

• Superior Biocompatibility: Crafted from medical-grade Polyurethane, the catheter exhibits unique "thermosensitivity"—softening at body temperature to minimize mechanical irritation to the vessel wall.

• Dual Independent Lumens: Two completely separate channels allow for the simultaneous infusion of incompatible concurrent pressure monitoring without cross-reaction.

• Atraumatic Tip Design: The precision-tapered tip ensures a smooth transition from the introducer needle and guidewire, making insertion precise and lightweight.

• Infection Control: Available coating options to significantly reduce the risk of Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSI).

• Comprehensive Kit Configuration: Includes all necessary components—dilator, guidewire, syringe, and fixation devices—for immediate clinical use, streamlining operative procedures.

Material Distinction: Polyurethane (PU) vs. Silicone

• Medical Polyurethane (PU): Offers higher tensile strength, allowing for thinner walls and higher flow rates. Its thermosensitive property (stiff at room temperature for easy insertion, soft at body temperature for safety) provides the perfect balance of operability and patient comfort.

• Medical Silicone: Extremely soft but requires thicker walls and has lower pressure resistance. Generally preferred for long-term chronic indwelling (months), whereas PU is superior for acute and critical care due to ease of insertion.

Applications & Target Audience

• Hemodynamic Monitoring: Real-time Central Venous Pressure (CVP) measurement.

• Infusion: Ideal for administering high-osmolarity, irritating, or incompatible medications (e.g., vasopressors).

• Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN): Safe delivery of large-volume nutritional support.

• Emergency Fluid Resuscitation: Rapid access when peripheral veins are collapsed or inaccessible.

• Target Audience: Post-operative ICU patients, trauma victims, patients in shock, and long-term infusion therapy candidates.

FAQ

• Q: What is the flow rate for an 8 Fr catheter?

  • A: While it depends on fluid viscosity, the distal lumen of our 8 Fr catheter provides sufficient flow for heavy fluid resuscitation.

• Q: Does the guidewire have a flexible "J" tip?

  • A: Yes, the kit includes a premium "J-tip" guidewire to prevent perforation of the vessel wall during insertion.

• Q: Are OEM services available for custom kit configurations?

  • A: Absolutely. We offer full OEM support, including customized kit components, branded labeling, and specific catheter markings.
