Getting to the Heart of the Matter

Clinicians using Sherlock 3CG™ Tip Confirmation System (TCS) for PICC placement have eliminated harmful radiation from confirmatory chest X-rays1 and reduced costs to their healthcare facilities.2

Sherlock 3CG™ Diamond TCS provides an enhanced user interface with updated functionality.

P-wave highlighting—Helps the clinician determine if the P-wave is present, identifiable, and consistent.

Max P-wave identification—Enhances the user interface by identifying max P-wave with stylet color and shape change, as well as ECG highlight and color change.

In addition, Sherlock 3CG™ Diamond TCS includes all of the great features of Sherlock 3CG™ TCS.

Features

Sherlock 3CG™ Diamond TCS provides an enhanced user interface with updated functionality.

  • Simultaneous view of catheter tip tracking and ECG
    Integrates catheter tip tracking and ECG confirmation on the same display
  • Static ECG baseline
    Provides comparative ECG waveform for interpretation of P-wave changes and to assist in maximum P-wave identification

  • Dynamic ECG waveform
    Measures changes in P-wave morphology to allow you to position the catheter tip in proximity to the cavoatrial junction
  • Maintain sterile field
    Through-drape connection allows you to maintain a maximal barrier sterile field during placement. The probe and wireless remote allow you to maintain sterility while interfacing with Sherlock 3CG™ TCS
  • Tip confirmation documentation
    Allows for PICC tip location to be easily documented in a patient's chart or stored on the Sherlock 3CG™ TCS System

  • Guideline compliance
    Helps you comply with AVA and INS guidelines for proper PICC placement by helping to position the PICC tip in proximity to the cavoatrial junction

Benefits

  • Indicated for use as an alternative method to chest X-ray and fluoroscopy for PICC tip placement confirmation in adult patients with a present, identifiable, and consistent P-wave
  • Immediate confirmation of PICC tip position at the bedside and immediate release of the PICC line

  • Decreases time from initiation of insertion procedure to release for IV therapy as compared to “blind” catheter placements confirmed with chest X-ray3
  • Eliminates costs associated with confirmatory chest X-ray and time previously spent waiting for X-ray confirmation readings2

  • Eliminates confirmatory chest X-ray exposure to the patient and the clinician

Recommended by National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) UK2
