Central venous catheterization kit, short-term

7,533 devices · GMDN 61594

A central venous catheterization kit for short-term use contains all necessary components to safely insert a central venous catheter (CVC) for procedures like fluid administration or blood draws. These kits are designed for temporary access (up to 30 days) and include the catheter itself, introducers, guidewires, sterile drapes, dressings, and other essential tools to minimize infection risk during insertion.

These kits are single-use, non-reusable devices regulated under medical device standards to ensure sterility and safety. They are typically supplied as sterile, pre-packaged trays and may require professional training for proper use, as they involve vascular access procedures. Classification and regulatory requirements vary by jurisdiction but generally follow guidelines for invasive medical devices.
