Cook Inc Flexor Tuohy-Borst Sidearm Introducers - Flexor Ansel Guiding Sheath with Tuohy-Borst Sidearm Adapter, 6 Fr, 1.9 ID mm, 55 cm - G29996

Used to introduce balloon, closed and nontapered-end catheters or other devices. Uniquely fabricated sheath design to provide maximum flexibility without kinking or compression. .018 and .038 inch wire compatible dilators included. Preformed curves combined with soft distal tip allow atraumatic engagement of target vessels. Short dilator tip enhances trackability and facilitates positioning of introducer assembly in tight spaces. Radiopaque band, incorporated within sheath material, identifies precise location of sheath's distal tip for positioning accuracy. Use of opened Tuohy-Borst manual-adjusting valve seal permits unimpeded catheter or device introduction. Closed valve position prevents blood reflux, air aspiration and movement of positioned catheter. AQ® hydrophilic coating on both sheath and dilator provide an extremely lubricious surface, easing introduction. Supplied sterile in peel-open packages. Intended for one-time use.
