Peritoneal dialysis catheter introduction set

A peritoneal dialysis catheter introduction set is a sterile, single-use kit designed to aid in the precise placement of a peritoneal dialysis catheter through the skin. It typically includes tools like dilators and insertion sheaths to minimize trauma and improve accuracy during the procedure, ensuring safe access for fluid exchange in peritoneal dialysis treatments.

These kits are regulated as medical devices and are generally classified based on their invasive components, though specifics vary by jurisdiction. They are supplied as complete, ready-to-use assemblies and are not reusable or medicated, focusing solely on mechanical assistance for catheter insertion.
