CHRONIC HEMODIALYSIS ACCESS

Mahurkar™* Chronic Carbothane™* Catheter

A reliable long-term catheter — consistently delivering high flow rates with low venous and arterial pressures.

Overview

Explore a tunneled hemodialysis catheter option for acute or chronic dialysis access

Supported by Carbothane™* material construction, the Mahurkar™* Chronic Carbothane™* catheter design discourages recirculation while supporting high vascular flow rates and adequate pressure for hemodialysis.1 Ideal for central venous catheter (CVC) placement in the right atrium via right internal jugular (IJ), this catheter can also be placed in the external jugular, subclavian, femoral, or saphenous vein.

Featuring:

  • Double lumen catheter design (Double-D™* Lumen)
  • 14.5 Fr/ Ch (19-33cm implant length)
  • Large laser-printed volume markings
  • Color-coded in-line clamp and luer lock adapter
  • Silicone extensions (enables flow visibility)
