Description

Covidien 8888414011 Swan Neck Presternal Peritoneal Catheter
The Argyle swan neck presternal peritoneal catheter has an exit site located on the upper chest wall instead of at the belt line, making it ideal for patients with a more active lifestyle, obese patients who may have difficulty manipulating a catheter at the belt line and incontinent patients. The presternal (upper) segment of the Argyle swan neck presternal peritoneal catheter is tunneled into the subcutaneous tissue of the chest wall. The upper segment connects with the intraperitoneal (lower) segment with a double-barbed titanium connector. Both the presternal and intraperitoneal segments can be trimmed in order to custom fit the patient.
The intraperitoneal segment is a variation of the Missouri catheter. The pre-formed 180℃ angle is designed to keep both the internal and external portions of the catheter positioned downward. The angled catheter is designed to keep the internal portion from migrating out of position and to decrease stress on the exit site, which often occurs when a straight catheter is manually curved.
