The Arrow® Pressure Injectable Midline Catheter with Chlorag+ard® Antimicrobial and Antithrombogenic Technology is indicated for short-term (< 30 days) peripheral access to the venous system for intravenous therapy, blood sampling, infusion, and pressure injection of contrast media. The maximum pressure of pressure injector equipment used with the Arrow Antimicrobial and Antithrombogenic Pressure Injectable Midline Catheter may not exceed 300 psi (2068.4kPa). The maximum pressure injection flow rate for the specific lumen being used for pressure injection is printed on the extension line hub.

Chlorag+ard Technology treatment on the external surface of the catheter body as well as the entire fluid pathway of the catheter has been shown to be effective in reducing microbial colonization and thrombus accumulation on catheter surfaces. Antimicrobial and antithrombogenic effectiveness was evaluated using in vitro and in vivo test methods and no correlation between these testing methods and clinical outcome has currently been ascertained. It is not intended to be used for the treatment of existing infections or vein thrombosis.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
