SafeSheath® Ultra and
SafeSheath® Ultra Long

Peel-away, hemostatic introducer system for vascular access with luer activated infusion side port and easy-splitting hub. Available in 6–12.5 French sizes.

SafeSheath® is the industry standard, combining a tear-away introducer and hemostatic valve to reduce back bleeding and the possibility of air embolism. The SafeSheath Ultra builds on that success.

SafeSheath Ultra Introduced into the subclavian vein in the standard manner, the hemostatic valve of the 13cm SafeSheath Ultra seals the introducer during lead introduction and positioning.

The Ultra’s 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. A new locking dilator connector assures a firm attachment to the sheath.

The design of the Ultra’s low profile luer activated side port reduces interefence with other devices. Additionally, the port provides a convenient means of aspirating and flushing the introducer, as well as medication, contrast and fluid administration.

Finally, the silicone oil-free construction of the Ultra will not affect the sensing and pacing characteristics of today’s pacemaker leads.

SafeSheath Ultra Long When a longer introducer is required, the 23cm Ultra Long provides access beyond the right subclavian-SVC junction, from both the left cephalic and subclavian veins. The longer introducer helps when upgrading existing systems by the addition of new leads and for atypical venous access sites—axillary or femoral. It also acts as a ‘supporting’ introducer for the introduction of defibrillator leads.
