Zusammenfassung: | Extended dwell catheter assemblies each with a housing having an interior having a catheter assembly located therein, which can include a catheter tube and a needle. The catheter tube of the catheter assembly can be placed into a vein of a patient, with or without a guidewire, and then the extended dwell catheter assembly can be activated to separate into two or more housing components or by opening a gate to enable separation of the catheter assembly from the housing. A needle guard can be included to cover the needle tip of the needle from unintended needlesticks. |
