CATHETER LEADERCATH 20Gx8cm (x20)

Arterial Leadercath is a catheter for arterial access inserted by the Seldinger technique. Although it can be inserted in a variety of arteries, the most common sites for the placement of this catheter are the radial and the femoral artery. The Seldinger technique makes arterial puncture easier particularly in hypotensive patients with a weak peripheral pulse and when arteries are atherosclerosed or narrow.

Codes 115.12, 115.15 and 115.17 contain also: - 1 polyethylene extension tube (30cm long), - 1 syringe 5ml, - 1 three-way stopcock, - 1 cover drape 45 x 60cm. 20/180 : codes 115.090/092/094/096/11/118 5/45 : codes 115.12/15/17
