ACUTE HEMODIALYSIS ACCESS

Mahurkar™* Elite Acute Catheters

Our family of Mahurkar™* Elite acute dual and triple lumen catheters offers features focused on acute dialysis care — providing recirculation efficiency and maintaining preferred catheter flow rates and pressures during treatment.

Overview

The Mahurkar™* Elite acute 12 Fr dual lumen catheter and 12.5 Fr triple lumen catheter consistently achieve flow rates up to 400 mL/min.1,† The Mahurkar™* Elite acute 13.5 Fr high flow dual lumen catheter is an optimal high flow catheter that consistently achieves flow rates up to 450mL/min.1,†

  • Bench-top testing shows tip design minimizes recirculation rates to < 1% in forward and reverse flows1
  • Shaft softens at least 54% post-insertion for vessel conformity and patient fit2
  • Large Double-D™* lumen design and modified Double-D™* lumen design maximize the internal diameter to provide equal and consistent flow rates with lower arterial pressures1
  • Large laser-cut side slots1
  • Reinforced hub minimizes kinking2
