Cathmark® suction catheters offer a method for neonatal suctioning. Each Cathmark® package has a bar graph that is based on the infant’s weight and acts as a guide in determining the maximum distance (in cm) for safer catheter insertion. The catheter calibration markings facilitate proper tip placement, helping reduce the incidence of pneumothorax in neonate suctioning.
