Affected Products
PLEUR-EVAC Thoracic Catheters (CATHETER, IRRIGATION). The thoracic catheter is a sterile, non pyrogenic, single use device that allows drainage from the mediastinum and/or the pleural space. The thoracic catheter is composed of Phthalate-free PVC material and is available in straight, right angle, and trocar configurations in a variety of sizes. The catheter is soft enough to prevent tissue laceration during insertion and tissue pressure necrosis due to the catheter being left in place for a period of time. The catheter is also rigid enough to facilitate insertion of the tube and to avoid obstruction by external compression or kinking.
