[An arterial catheter for multiple use in pediatrics (author's transl)]. 1978

J Fays, and M C Bretagne, and E Rose, and A Tréheux

The authors describe a pediatric catheter for use mainly in highly selective abdominal angiography (splenic, gastrica sinistra, and intestinal arteries). The catheter is made of polyurethane, is 65 cm long and is curved. It has a bore of 5 F and is introduced with a wo 32 guide, allowing a flow-rate of 10 ml/sec. The catheter point is polished by chemical means allowing penetration of the arterial wall without preliminary dilatation. This avoids vascular spasm and damage to the vascular wall at the site of puncture.
