Catheters

Catheters are essential and potentially life-saving devices. Whether used for vascular procedures, intravenous short- or long-term medical care, indwelling or intermittent urinary management, or other specialty uses, a catheter’s design requires precision. Since they can be made from various materials, choosing the best material for the desired use requires understanding the functional, safety, manufacturability, and essential performance needs.
