Incorporating a specially engineered valve membrane, the new SafeSheath® Ultra Lite provides minimal insertion forces during lead introduction and positioning.
The Ultra Lite is introduced into the subclavian vein in the standard manner. The hemostatic valve of the 13cm Ultra Lite seals the device during procedures, reducing back bleeding and the possibility of air embolism.
The easy splitting, ergonomically shaped break-away hub greatly simplifies sheath removal after lead or catheter placement. The extruded score line construction ensures a clean, even peel every time.
Finally, a new locking dilator connector assures a firm attachment to the sheath.
