Epimed originally invented and patented the
RACZ® Style Spring Tip Catheter over three decades ago. This
catheter concept has provided physicians a better, safer way to treat
patients and deliver medication over the years. Evolving improvements
to the design and manufacture of this catheter has lead to the Feth-R-Kath™as
we know it today.
The Feth-R-Kath™ offers a soft
Atraumatic spring tip which deflects off of sensitive tissue planes and
neural structures. The integral welded ribbon prevents the catheter
from stretching and is tensile tested to ensure
consistent performance for confident results.
The 19 Ga. Feth-R-Kath™ comes in a convenient 24" (61cm)
length for ease of handling and enhanced direct-ability. This catheter
features the same proprietary nylon blend coating as the SPIROL® catheter for ideal insertion and removal
characteristics as well as shear resistance. When inserted with the
RX™, RK™
or FICintroducer needle products, the Feth-R-Kath™
can be manipulated with confidence into the epidural space with
minimal chance of complications compared to similar catheters on the market
today.
