An arterial catheter is a thin, hollow tube that is placed into an artery (blood vessel) in the wrist, groin, or other location to measure blood pressure more accurately than is possible with a blood pressure cuff. This is often called an “art line” in the intensive care unit (ICU).

Arterial Catheter is a catheter for arterial access inserted by the Seldinger technique.

Although it can be inserted in a variety of arteries, the most common sites for the placement of this catheter are the radial and the femoral artery.

The Seldinger technique makes arterial puncture easier particularly in hypotensive patients with a weak peripheral pulse and when arteries are atherosclerosed or narrow.

The product is supplied in a rigid blister containing:

- 1 stainless steel puncture needle,

- 1 transparent polyurethane catheter with fixation wings,

- 1 straight Nitinol guidewire
