Experience the efficiency of power injection for CECT (Contrast Enhanced Computed Tomography) scans and PICC therapy
- Overview
- Tray Configurations
- Tray Components
- EIFU & Resources
PowerPICC™ catheters combine the efficacy of PICC access and power injection into one catheter.
Maximum Injection Rates
PowerPICC™ catheters allow injection of contrast media for CECT (Contrast Enhanced Computed Tomography) scans at a maximum rate of 5 mL/sec.1
StatLock™ Stabilization Device Compatible
Safety securement designed for extended-dwell catheters.
Clearly Labeled
The Power of Purple® . . . PowerPICC™ catheters are clearly labeled to differentiate them from all PICCs not indicated for power injection.
Single, Dual and Triple Lumen Catheters
Available in 3 and 4 French single-lumen, 4 and 5 French dual-lumen, 5 and 6 French triple-lumen sizes.
Central Venous Pressure (CVP) Monitoring
All PowerPICC™ catheters are indicated for CVP monitoring.2
5 Fr Dual Lumen PowerPICC™ FT (Flexible Tip) Catheter
In addition to the reverse taper gently plugging the venotomy site, the PowerPICC™ FT catheter provides a smaller diameter, more flexible middle section for the smaller peripheral deep veins of the upper arm and a larger diameter distal tip for the larger central veins.
Easy-to-Read I.D. Tags
Indicate maximum injection rates and prompts users to check catheter patency
Reverse Taper Design
Gently plugs the insertion site and provides excellent kink resistance
Multiple tray configurations
Available in basic and full tray configurations
Patient Satisfaction
Designed to decrease needle stick injuries to improve patient comfort
Multiple Tray Options for Clinician Convenience
Available in Basic and Full tray configurations.
PowerPICC™ trays are designed to follow Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) insertion procedural steps.
PowerPICC™ catheter is available with the Sherlock 3CG™ Diamond Tip Confirmation System (TCS). The Sherlock 3CG™ Diamond TCS enables confirmation of PICC tip position3 at the bedside, and immediate release of the PICC in addition to eliminating costs associated with confirmatory chest X-ray.4
Dedicated Intervention Radiology tray with a choice of 70cm or 135cm Nitinol Guidewire and longer Microintroducer (10cm) for the IR placer.
Latex-free components for clinicians/patients with latex allergies.
Full procedural tray that includes maximal barrier components enabling clinicians to meet best practice guidelines outlined by:
