The Swan-Neck Specialty Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter uses a pre-formed 180° bend ("swan neck") in its subcutaneous tunnel to reduce risk of migration, kinking, and exit-site complications. Designed with felt cuffs to anchor securely, this catheter supports long-term peritoneal dialysis by keeping both internal and external segments directed downward for improved stability and drainage.
High-performance variants—like the Curl Cath or Missouri designs—add diffusion holes for inflow/outflow and a silicone bead or disk to manage dialysate leakage.
A radiopaque stripe helps ensure accurate positioning during placement, and pre-surgical stencils reflect the catheter’s exact angle for precise tunnelling.
Intended Use:
For use in chronic peritoneal dialysis by trained clinicians, offering durable, low-migration access for patients requiring long-term PD.
