PlexoLong

Non-echogenic Catheter-Through-Needle System

PlexoLong

Non-echogenic Catheter-Through-Needle System

The PlexoLong catheter set was developed in collaboration with Dr. Meier and represents the classical non-echogenic CTN (Catheter-Through-Needle) systems. The catheter is introduced in sterile condition directly from a container through the needle, before the anaesthetic is injected through the catheter.

Similar to our other CTN catheter sets, the PlexoLong sets are available with three different types of needles: with a Tuohy tip, Facet Tip or the SPROTTE® Special Tip.

The optional PlexoLong Sono catheter is equipped with an integrated stainless steel helical coil for improved catheter echogenicity.
