Arrow NextStep Antegrade
Tunnel permanent hemodialysis catheter with Antegrade technique:
Inverted ports: For high flow, Nextstep Antegrade catheter ports are inverted: the venous port is placed in the SVC and the arterial port is placed in the right atrium
Arterial port: designed to optimize flow through placement in the atrium: the side ports take blood from all directions.
Venous port: complete separation from the arterial port increases flow and minimizes recirculation.
Easy entry: special design for smooth passage through the sheet and word on the guidewire.
