QUICKDRAW FEMORAL VENOUS CANNULA• Thin wall, wire-wound design allows

for excellent flow characteristics

• Large, interspaced drainage holes allowfor consistent, uninterrupted venousdrainage

• Can be used with vacuum or kinetic assistvenous drainage to augment venous flowand drainage of the heart

VFEM FEMORAL VENOUS CANNULA• Proprietary ultra thin wall technology

enhances flow and flexibility

• Polyurethane body with wire reinforcementhelps prevent kinking

• Dilator locks in full extended position forsmooth insertion

• Tapered tip, smooth dilator-to-cannulatransition facilitates insertion

• Variety of lengths to accommodate mostpatients: 55 cm and 68 cm

• Radiopaque tip allows visualizationduring placement

Wire-wound tip designed foruninterrupted venous drainage

FEMTRAK FEMORAL VENOUS CANNULA• Metal ferrule and precision designed cannula provides

an atraumatic, smooth transition between cannulaand introducer

• Tapered auto-dilating tip

• Soft, flexible tip navigates through tortuous anatomy

• Proprietary ultra thin wall technology optimizes flow

FEM-FLEX II FEMORAL VENOUS CANNULA• Indicated for pediatric patients

• Polyurethane body with wire reinforcement helpsprevent kinking

• Designed with ultra thin wall technology for enhancedflow and flexibility

Metal Ferrule• Provides a smooth transition between

cannula and introducer

• Allows easier and less traumatic insertion

Tapered Auto-Dilating Tip• Easily follows guidewire

• Allows for fewer dilation steps

Locking Introducer• Prevents retraction from cannula

• Decreases likelihood of damagingvessel wall
