Certofix® Trio

Certofix® Trio

Product Description

The Certofix® Trio simplifies your daily work routine with its triple-lumen design, allowing multiple accesses simultaneously. The set supports you and your team in the quick and safe catheterisation of the superior vena cava using the proven Seldinger technique. Thanks to the integrated possibility for intra-atrial ECG recording, you can precisely verify the catheter position – this increases patient safety and reduces follow-up checks. A practical example: When placing a central venous access in the intensive care unit, the Certofix® Trio facilitates the process through its ergonomic fixation wings and needle-free valve, saving valuable time. This way, you gain more comfort and efficiency in your daily workflow.
