The Passio Pleural Catheter Insertion Kit is a time-saving solution for your hospital staff. There’s no need to waste time and money pulling together all of the components required for a catheter insertion when you could be utilizing the convenient Passio kit.
The Passio catheter is a silicone catheter with a polyester cuff and eyelets to drain accumulated fluid from the pleural cavity. This cuffed catheter is implanted to allow for intermittent external draining of excess fluid in the pleural cavity. There is a valve on the catheter that prevents air and/or fluid from being evacuated from the pleural space until drainage is activated with the Handheld Control Unit.
