Tip location devices are proving to be extremely useful in ambulatory surgical centers, catheterization labs, and hospitals

 

Tip Location Devices

The peripheral tip location devices for catheters are the latest innovation with a host of potential advantages over existing catheter types. These devices are placed in the body of the person to be treated and offer immediate relief from urinary tract infections. The tip area of these devices is very small and can be used for precision puncture of delicate areas, which are not easily reached by a conventional catheter. Although they are the smallest and simplest of all catheter types, they offer a wide range of advantages over other catheters for two main reasons. First, peripheral tip units are faster than any other type of catheter. Second, they offer greater ease of administration, which means that more patients can be treated at once, using a single unit.

There are several types of single peripheral device devices that can be used to perform a variety of functions. However, the most common of these types is a magnetic tracking device, which provides instant magnetic readings as soon as the catheter is inserted into the body of the patient. Unlike the other devices listed above, this one does not require any other equipment to provide its diagnostic results. It can also perform intravascular Doppler studies very quickly and reliably as well as blood gas analysis.

In the future, the single tip location devices will probably replace the traditional annual and fixed-length probes. The reasons for this are many. For one thing, it is now known that the majority of urinary tract infections are caused by bacteria rather than disease-causing organisms such as virus infections and urinary blockages. Therefore, if the accuracy of the single-use pulse oximeter tipped probe can be improved, there is every chance that urinary tract infection and its resulting complications can be avoided. As is currently evident, this future outlook is promising indeed. Recently, in September 2019, TeleFlex Inc. launched its peripheral intervention product portfolio at the Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe conference.
