Product Features

  • Light weight durable titanium portal reservoir provides gouge resistance and long-term durability
  • Contoured shape designed for patient comfort and ease of portal palpation
  • Needle-stop titanium reservoir floor creates positive tactile feedback when the accessing needle makes contact
  • Distinct rounded septum ring designed to assist in septum location
  • High compression SECUR SITE® septum captured in titanium designed for needle retention and stability
  • Beveled suture holes designed for ease of suturing
  • ULTRA-LOCK® catheter connector integrated with portal for ease of system assembly
  • Portal systems are MRI compatible
Features of catheter:

  • PolyFlow® Polyurethane catheter minimizes outer/inner diameter ratio and maximizes flow rate
  • PolyFlow® Polyurethane catheter is kink-resistant, biocompatible and radiopaque
  • Smaller outer diameter than silicone catheters with the same internal diameter
  • Smaller introducer than silicone catheters with the same internal diameter
  • High tensile and shear strength designed to withstand high pressure
  • Firm at room temperature for easier advancement into the vein with silicone-like softness at body temperature
  • Surface structure shown to be lower in platelet adhesion (1)
  • Catheter markings for reference during catheter placement
  • Contoured tip for ease of advancement into the vein
