Product catalog summary
Overview: Edwards Lifesciences offers a range of femoral venous cannulae designed to accommodate various surgical preferences. These include the QuickDraw, FemTrak, VFEM, and Fem-Flex II pediatric cannulae, all featuring an ultra-thin wall design to maximize venous drainage.
QuickDraw Femoral Venous Cannula: This cannula features a thin wall, wire-wound design for excellent flow characteristics. It has large, interspaced drainage holes for consistent venous drainage and can be used with vacuum or kinetic assist venous drainage systems.
VFEM Femoral Venous Cannula: Utilizing proprietary ultra-thin wall technology, this cannula enhances flow and flexibility. It has a polyurethane body with wire reinforcement to prevent kinking, a dilator that locks in the extended position for smooth insertion, and a radiopaque tip for visualization during placement. Available in lengths of 55 cm and 68 cm.
FemTrak Femoral Venous Cannula: This cannula features a metal ferrule for a smooth transition between the cannula and introducer, a tapered auto-dilating tip, and a soft, flexible tip for navigation through complex anatomy. It also uses ultra-thin wall technology to optimize flow.
Fem-Flex II Femoral Venous Cannula: Designed for pediatric patients, this cannula has a polyurethane body with wire reinforcement to prevent kinking and uses ultra-thin wall technology for enhanced flow and flexibility. It includes a metal ferrule for smooth insertion and a locking introducer to prevent retraction.
Specifications: The document provides detailed specifications for each type of cannula, including size, effective length, and connector type. The Fem-Flex II is available in sizes ranging from 8 Fr. to 14 Fr., while the VFEM ranges from 18 Fr. to 28 Fr. The QuickDraw and FemTrak cannulae are available in sizes 20 Fr. to 25 Fr. and 20 Fr. to 24 Fr., respectively.
Pressure Drop vs. Flow: Graphs are included to illustrate the pressure drop versus flow rate for each type of cannula, indicating performance characteristics at various flow rates.
Additional Information: The document notes that the sale of these devices is restricted to physicians and provides contact information for Edwards Lifesciences in various global locations.
