Critical Assist is a Sydney-based company that provides a range of medical and surgical products. The company caters to critical care needs of public and private hospitals, day-procedure centres, primary care market and surgical wholesalers.
Multi-Lumen Central Venous Catheters provided by Critical Assist are used for treating all age groups of patients, ranging from infants to adults. These devices are made from special strong polyurethane material, which softens when inserted into the patient’s body. This makes these catheters’ insertion process less distressful for the patient and ensures optimal control to the doctor while inserting. The doctor using these devices can easily navigate the catheter within the vessel, eliminating the irritation of the vessel walls. This is made possible by the soft-tip at the distal end of these devices. The tip makes the insertion process safe and easy. These multi-lumen central venous catheters are compatible with both commonly-available straight introducer needle as well as the Y-Valve needle.
The multi-lumen central venous catheters feature radiopaque material with clear, definite markings. This ensures correct placement on the catheter tip. The specially-designed guidewire of these devices offers better stiffness to ensure firm insertion.
