Arterial Catheters
Biometrix™ arterial catheters are generally used to provide access for arterial blood pressure monitoring and administration of medication and/or anesthesia. Designed to improve patient safety, the catheters decrease the risk of complications associated with insertion techniques and provide optimal diagnostics, leading to effective treatment for patients.
Biometrix arterial catheters feature anti-kink polyurethane catheters and complete Seldinger kits that provide an all-in-one solution for performing femoral and radial arterial catheterizations.
