LONG TERM
Indications for Use: The Medcomp® Hemo-Cath® LT Silicone Double Lumen Catheter can be utilized for long term implantation as well as temporary access for hemodialysis, hemoperfusion, or apheresis therapy. The cannula may be inserted via the Seldinger Technique due to the inner Teflon stylet, increasing linear strength. The stylet is removed after insertion, leaving the soft silicone cannula in the body. The flexible silicone make-up conforms well to the vessel anatomy, resulting in higher patient tolerance during extended use. Contraindications: The Subclavian Approach is NOT recommended for use with the Medcomp® Double Lumen Subclavian-Femoral Catheter in Hemodialysis or Hemoperfusion Procedures used for the management of acute poisoning or other situations in which a ventilator might be used due to risk of traumatic pneumothorax posing a dangerous complication for the patient.
