Introducer Sheathes

Introducer Sheath – Femoral

General Description

Dilator and sheath made from HDPE with stainless steel guide wire Grade 304.

Introducer sheath consists of a sheath introducer with compatible vessel dilator that snaps securely into the sheath introducer hub.

The sheath is equipped with a side port attached to a segment of extension tubing terminating with a 3-way stopcock.

The sheath hub contains an integral hemostasis valve and suture ring.

The vessel dilator is tipped specifically to accept either a 0.038” or a 0.018” diameter guide wire. The device is marketed with and without an appropriately sized guide wire and/or access needle.

The guide wire is inserted through a cannula placed in the patient’s blood vessel. The introducer sheath is then inserted over the guide wire and into the blood vessel.

The guide wire is then withdrawn from the vessel. The dilator maintains the integrity of the sheath and dilates the blood vessel while the introducer sheath is being placed into the vessel.

The dilator can be removed and an appropriate catheter can then be inserted.

Intended Use

The sheath introducer is intended to provide access and facilitate the percutaneous introduction of various devices into veins and/or arteries through the femur while maintaining hemostasis for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures

Please note that this device shall only be used by a well-trained and qualified healthcare person or under supervision of a physician in hospital or clinical settings.

Product Features

  • Made of high grade bio-compatible medical polymers
  • Kink-resistant system achieved by using the right material, durometer, and thickness which allow 45° angle without kinking or collapsing
  • Advanced tipping technology used to achieve a lower insertion force
  • Specially engineered hemostasis valve to minimize blood leakage during insertion and withdrawal of devices
  • Snap fit dilator eliminate slipping during insertion, easy to grasp surface and audible snap
