The results are enhanced comfort and safety for the patient and greater ease of use and reliablity for the anesthesia provider.

This unique polyurethane FlexTip Plus catheter provides the precise balance of characteristics needed to get ease of placement, reliable patency, and optimum indwelling characteristics. Now this technology is available in a closed tip, multi-port catheter so you can achieve the drug dispersion you prefer with the quality of care you demand for your patients.

Less inadvertent penetration. The soft, flexible tip is designed to deflect when it contacts the dura or blood vessels, which significantly reduces the risk of vessel puncture and the incidence of paresthesia.

Reliable patency. The coil reinforcement makes the FlexTip Plus Multi-Port kink resistant to better maintain patency, even in some situations that might cause ordinary nylon catheters to fail.
