Clinical Results<br />
Reduce the risk of vessel<br />
perforation using the soft<br />
tip with the Oligon agent<br />
• Significantly reduced the catheter colonization rate<br />
in a prospective randomized trial at ten institutions<br />
versus a standard catheter 2<br />
• Reduced catheter-related infection rates by 48% in<br />
a second study when substituted for an alternative<br />
antimicrobial catheter 3<br />
Include traditional <strong>Edwards</strong> Lifesciences<br />
CVC benefits<br />
• Allow easy CVC insertion with single-handed<br />
guidewire insertion device<br />
• Infuse fluids up to 77% faster than with<br />
<strong>com</strong>peting CVCs, due to optimized lumen and<br />
backform design 1<br />
• Minimize needlestick risks with Interlink<br />
injection caps<br />
• Optional heparin coating available<br />
