Terumo Catheters

The catheter is made of Ethylene tetrafluorethylene (ETFE), a material known for its flexible strength and high bio compatibility. Because ETFE is stronger, compared to other materials, there is less like hood of split tips and peel-back. The point of the introducing needle is carefully cut and honed to an ultra-sharp triple bevel that minimizes patient discomfort and tissue trauma.

Features include:

• Surflo Teflon I V Catheter has superior catheter and needle tip design.
• The point of the introducing needle is cut and honed to an ultra-sharp triple bevel that minimizes patient discomfort and tissue trauma.
• The gently tapered catheter tip aligns with the needle bevel to provide smooth transition from needle to catheter during insertion.
• The Terumo logo located on the upper surface of the flashback chamber serves as a needle bevel indicator.
• This permits precise bevel alignment even after venepuncture has been initiated.
• The case of the catheter is colour-coded for easy identification of the catheter gauge and has a tamper-evident seal for additional safety.
• The Surflow IV Catheter is latex free.
