Product Manual

Safe-T-Centesis
®
catheter drainage system
This innovative drainage system is designed to reduce the risks associated with normal percutaneous needle placements and enhance
patient comfort and procedural flexibility.
Veress
™
technology dual-
lumen blunt obturator
Provides patient protection
from perforations and user
protection from needlestick
injuries.
Remote stopcock
Provides procedural convenience and
safety by facilitating connection to
drainage/extension sets while minimizing
inadvertent device or catheter movement.
Catheter modularity
For procedures not requiring maintenance of a closed
system, the luer lock connection allows convenient
removal of pigtail catheter from valve assembly.
Self-sealing valve
Maintains closed system or allows for reinsertion of
introducer needle or guide wire for procedures not
requiring maintenance of a closed system.
Visual color indicator
Transitions to red when sharp distal tip
is exposed and returns to “Safe-White”
when spring-loaded obturator is
automatically extended, presenting
an atraumatic front to injury.
Silicone coating
Allows for smooth percutaneous insertion while
minimizing potential for “accordion” effect and
reducing tissue trauma.
Centimeter depth markings
Reliable reference for safe catheter placement
with 16 cm of usable catheter length.
Pigtail catheter
Self-directing and occlusion-resistant.
Minimally invasive 6 Fr or 8 Fr size
