Zusammenfassung: | An anchor strain relief member provides resistance to disengagement from a hemostatic valve due to forces tending to force the catheter in a proximal direction. The anchoring strain relief member is distal to a hub, joined to the catheter outer surface, and comprises a sealing portion that has at least one ridge that has a ridge tip and a ridge height defined by a distance from the ridge tip to the catheter central axis. Methods of forming a nested catheter system are described using a catheter with an anchor strain relief as the inner catheter for the nested catheter set. Systems of a hemostatic valve and a suitable catheter with an anchor strain relief member can provide for desired assemblies of components. |
