DIALYSIS CATH PEDIATRIC/PERITONEAL

Argyle pediatric swan neck curl cath peritoneal catheters are suitable for pediatric patients. They are different from other catheters due to a pre-formed 180 angle designed to keep both the internal and external portions of the catheter positioned downward. The catheter is intended to keep the internal portion from migrating out of position and to decrease stress on the exit site by the external portion, which often occurs when a straight catheter is manually curved during placement. The additional mass of the curled catheter keeps the catheter low in the pelvic gutter, resulting in less catheter migration. The numerous catheter inflow/outflow holes diffuse dialysate gently into the patient.
