M•Drain® Centesis Catheter

The M•Drain® Centesis Catheter is an over the needle catheter designed for small abscess fluid aspirations and short-term drainage procedures.

Drainage is accomplished by puncturing the body cavity or organ with a hollow needle and aspirating the contents with a syringe or into an appropriate collection container.

Features

• Radiopaque and Kink-Resistant catheter material
• Two large oval “skived” holes to aid in maximum drainage flow and reduction of clogging
• Unique tapering provides smooth transition between needle and catheter for easy and precise placement
• Coated catheter for easy insertion
• Echogenic needle tip to aid in ultrasound visibility
• Clear needle hub allows for visual flashback confirmation
• Porous vent plug allows air to exit catheter during insertion and protects clinicians from fluid leakage
