BD Provena™ Midline Catheter

Historically, the use of smaller-diameter midlines has meant reductions in flow rates and power-injection capabilities forcing clinicians to choose between a smaller catheter to vein ratio or infusion performance.

At BD, we believe that smaller-diameter* midlines can make a difference. Provena™ Midline Catheters occupy a smaller percentage of the vessel compared to Bard® PowerMidline™ Catheters of the same lumen configuration and yet maintain high performance for infusion therapy providing clinicians with a variety of options to meet their preferred catheter-to-vein ratio.

• Smaller-diameter MST midline that maintains high performance for infusion therapy
• Created through a combination of engineering expertise and polyurethane material technology
• Proprietary polyurethane material allows for thin catheter walls and large lumen sizes

• Provides kink resistance for multiple dressing orientation
• Allows for gentle plugging of the insertion site

The catheter allows for injection of contrast media for CT scans at maximum flow rates:

• 3 Fr single lumen: 6 mL/sec
• 4 Fr dual lumen: 6 mL/sec

• Available in Basic, Kits and Max Barrier nursing configurations with MST components

Distally trimmable

• A distally trimmable catheter allows for customization to each patient’s anatomy

Compatibility

• Compatible with StatLock® Stabilization Devices

• Unique hub design and catheter labeling further identify the catheter as a midline.This helps eliminate catheter confusion and promotes patient safety

• Available in Basic, and Max Barrier nursing configurations with MST components

Softening polyurethane

• A polyurethane catheter that softens at body temperature

Kink resistance

• The reverse taper is designed to gently plug the insertion site and provides kink resistance

• No x-ray is required following the placement procedure
