Abbocath T

Cannula needle

Teflon FEP radiopaque intravenous catheter. Available in different sizes for administration, intravenous sampling or hemodynamic monitoring.

Needle: tip with triple scalpel sharpening, with short angle. Allows for easy and painless penetration without the risk of puncturing the opposite wall of the vein. Thin-walled body in electric stainless steel, without surface veins or cracks. Equipped with a transparent drip chamber. An exclusive system for visualizing the entry into the vein of the catheter. Airtight filter to allow rapid blood reflux and ensure internal catheter sterility.
Filter: impermeable to air to allow rapid reflux of blood and ensure the internal sterility of the catheter.
Catheter: Double-angled catheter tip. The first angle cancels the step between the needle body and the catheter tip. This avoids any trauma to the patient or the release of tissue particles into the circulation. The second angle gives greater strength by preventing the catheter from curling during insertion.
Penetration coefficient: the tip of each Abbocath-t is electronically controlled: this guarantees each catheter a constant penetration force, an indispensable requirement for a non-traumatic impact with the vessel wall.
Terminal connection: equipped with universal safety catch (Luer-Lock), it fits all the most common infusion sets.
