E-Cath® II & E-Cath® II Plus

Echogenic Catheter-Over-Needle System

Developed together with Dr. Ban Tsui, the E-Cath II / E-Cath II Plus combines the best from clinical experience and engineering expertise, resulting in a system that addresses the biggest catheter problems in CNBs: complexity, catheter kinking, anaesthetic leakage and catheter dislocation and migration.4,5,6,7

The results are easier, faster, safer and more reliable continuous nerve blocks with a reduction of workload during postoperative pain management.

CATHETER-OVER-NEEDLE (CON)
TECHNIQUE
Significantly reduces the chance of anaesthetic leakage
and catheter dislocation or migration4
Before Needle Removal
Outer diameter of needle
is smaller than the outer
diameter of the indwelling
catheter.
After Needle Removal
The puncture hole is
automatically sealed
reducing chance for
leakage and dislocation.

E-Cath II /E-Cath II Plus Overview

E-Cath II /E-Cath II Plus Features & Advantages

Catheter-Over-Needle Technique

  • Significantly reduces the chance of anaesthetic leakage and catheter dislocation or migration7

Double Layer Catheter Technology

  • Significantly reduces the chance of kinking
  • Allows for consistent anaesthetic flow

Self Priming System

  • E-Catheter comes with a proximal opening which allows the anaesthetic to flow, besides the open tip, also between the outer wall and the indwelling catheter
  • Creates 360 degree flow
  • Improves the U/S-visibility

Soft Tip

  • Reduced chance of nerve damage

Bayonet Lock

  • Ensures a safe and leakage-free connection between the needle / E-catheter and the indwelling catheter
  • Provides audible and haptic click feedback

Non-Removable Injection Tubing

  • Reduction of procedural steps
  • Closed system
  • No leakage
  • Catheter adapter is pre-assembled to the catheter system

Extended E-Catheter Tip (E-Cath Plus only)

  • Protrudes 15 mm past the indwelling catheter
  • Easy placement past the nerve
  • Compensates for minor tissue movement reducing chance of catheter migration

SonoPlex® Features & Advantages

Echogenic Needle Tip

  • Facet tip with two inclination angles
  • Improves needle tip visibility under ultrasound

Cornerstone Reflectors

  • 360 degree graduations on the first 20 mm of the needle
  • Optimised ultrasound visibility of needle shaft and needle tip1
  • Reliable and optimised needle visualisation at any angle2,3

NanoLine® Coating

  • Very thin polymer film on inner and outer needle surface
  • Excellent puncture and gliding properties through smooth surface
  • Improves visibility under ultrasound3
  • Precise stimulation through the non-insulated needle tip

Self Priming System

  • Needle comes with a distal opening which allows the anaesthetic to flow, besides the needle tip, also between the outer needle wall and the indwelling catheter
  • Improves ultrasound visibility

Depth Markings

  • Easy to read and identify
