Centros Chronic Hemodialysis Catheter

Superior Flow and Self-Centering by Design

• Evolutionary 15F split tip catheter design from Dr. Stephen Ash features preformed, curved tips which automatically center the catheter within the vessel
• Catheter tips provide excellent flow positioned in the SVC and do not need to be placed into the atrium - Minimal recirculation rate of 0.02%
• Catheter ports are supported in the middle of the blood flow, eliminating the need for side holes and potentially reducing the likelihood of sheathing
• “Anatomical Curve” catheter configuration naturally assumes a supraclavicular position and reduces potential for kinking
• Unique “guidewire slit” facilitates ease of over-the-wire insertion technique
• Clinical trial data demonstrates superior flow rates compared to a control group of competitive catheters
