The Sealing Connectors are a haemostatic valves used in minimally invasive procedures. The valves allow instruments to pass through while preventing blood or other fluids from leaking out. It is designed to maintain a seal around the inserted instruments.
A noninvasive device designed as a conduit through which a small-diameter diagnostic/interventional device(s) can be introduced into or withdrawn from a patient's vasculature while preventing backflow of blood; it might in addition be intended for urinary applications. It is intended to be attached, typically via Luer-lock, to an invasively-placed catheter introducer (not included) and typically has a self-sealing lumen(s) [e.g., Touhy-Borst valve] and sideport for the introduction of solutions. It may include noninvasive guidewire accessories (e.g., guidewire introducer). It is not designed to be connected between tubing (i.e., not an in-line valve). This is a single-use device.
