Disposable Vascular Introducer Sheath with Hemostatic Valve

Introducer Sheath | Disposable Vascular Access Medical Sheath Product Description

Product Introduction

The disposable introducer sheath is a core sterile interventional medical consumable specially developed for human radial artery and femoral artery puncture access, widely matched with all kinds of diagnostic and therapeutic catheters in vascular intervention operations. The complete product set includes main introducer sheath body and matched dilator, which works as a transitional channel between blood vessel and external interventional instruments during minimally invasive vascular surgery. After medical staff finish arterial puncture, the dilator cooperates with sheath to expand vascular opening and build stable working channel, then doctors can smoothly deliver angiography catheters, guide wires and other interventional devices into target blood vessels for vascular disease diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment.

All raw materials adopt medical-grade biocompatible polymer material which complies with international medical device biocompatibility standard; each finished product is processed under strict cleanroom environment and finished with EO sterile disinfection before factory delivery to guarantee clinical safety for single disposable usage and effectively avoid cross-infection between patients. Our introducer sheath covers complete specifications ranging from 4F to 9F with multiple length options from 7cm to 29cm, fully covering diversified clinical requirements from routine outpatient inspection to complex inpatient interventional surgery. Every product hub is designed with exclusive color-coded marking, helping clinical nurses and surgeons rapidly distinguish sheath size and avoid wrong specification selection during emergency operation.

Core Product Advantages

First of all, the transition design between introducer sheath and matched dilator is polished smoothly, realizing low-friction insertion and extraction during vessel operation. This structural optimization drastically reduces vascular scratch risk when the whole set passes through vessel wall and lessens postoperative vascular complications such as vessel spasm or bleeding. Secondly, the sheath tube owns excellent flexural resistance property; it can keep stable tubular shape under repeated bending inside human blood vessel without tube collapse or crack, greatly improving operation stability for long-time complicated interventional treatment.

The built-in special hemostatic valve is the core competitive feature of our introducer sheath. The customized valve structure can keep effective hemostasis status after guide wire or catheter passes through the sheath lumen, blocking backflow of arterial blood out of sheath opening during operation, simplifying intraoperative hemostasis steps and shortening whole surgical operation time significantly. Meanwhile, color-coded hub brings obvious practical value for hospital inventory management and emergency clinical use; medical operators can identify sheath specification just via hub color without checking catalogue repeatedly, improving operation efficiency especially in urgent cardiovascular emergency surgery.

Application Scenarios

This series of introducer sheaths are mainly applied in interventional cardiology departments, vascular surgery departments and cardiovascular specialist hospitals. The primary application covers radial artery & femoral artery puncture access construction for coronary angiography, peripheral vascular angiography and minimally invasive vascular lesion interventional therapy. It is also widely used in outpatient routine vascular screening inspection in general hospitals, cardiovascular emergency rescue operations for acute myocardial infarction, as well as minimally invasive interventional treatment for lower limb arterial occlusion, renal artery stenosis and other peripheral vascular disorders. Besides clinical hospital use, many professional medical device distributors and medical procurement groups also purchase full-size introducer sheath as standardized stocking product to supply local clinic and private specialized medical institutions.

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Is this introducer sheath for single use only? Can it be disinfected and reused?

A: All introducer sheaths belong to Class III disposable sterile medical device for interventional surgery, finished with EO sterilization. For patient clinical safety and relevant global medical regulation requirement, re-disinfection and repeated reuse is strictly prohibited, each set is designed for one-time clinical application only.

Q2: How to select proper Fr size and length for clinical operation?

A: Doctors select sheath specification based on target artery (radial/femoral), patient age, blood vessel inner diameter and matched catheter outer diameter. Short-length 7cm~11cm specifications are mostly used for radial artery routine angiography; longer 16cm~23cm options fit femoral artery deep vascular interventional treatment.

Q3: Does your factory support customized OEM packaging or customized hub color for bulk order?

A: We accept bulk OEM customization for large hospital and medical distributors, including customized outer packing box printing and exclusive hub color customization, MOQ can be negotiated based on total order quantity.

Q4: What is your sterile expiration shelf life for finished introducer sheath?

A: Standard sterile validity period is 5 years under normal dry and shady storage environment away from high temperature and sharp puncture.

Q5: Are your introducer sheaths compliant with international medical certification for global market sale?

A: Our introducer sheath series can provide relevant medical registration certification documents to meet CE, ISO and local medical authority registration requirement for most global medical market import and clinical bidding.
