What It Is

The PSG TM EDM TM Infusion Catheter is a specialized catheter designed for the infusion of therapeutic agents into the venous system. It features a flexible, small-diameter tube that can be navigated through the vascular system to deliver medications or contrast agents directly to targeted areas. This device is particularly useful in procedures requiring precise delivery of substances within the venous system.

FDA-Cleared Indications

  • Infusion of therapeutic agents into the venous system.
  • Percutaneous catheter access to blood vessels for delivery of fluids, medications, or contrast media, consistent with the device labeling and product code.

Clinical Applications

  • Venous infusion of medications or other therapeutic agents.
  • Delivery of contrast media during vascular imaging procedures.
  • Catheter-based venous procedures requiring controlled infusion through percutaneous vascular access.

Reported off-label uses

  • Catheter-directed thrombolytic infusion for selected venous thrombosis cases.
  • Regional chemotherapy infusion in selected oncology procedures.

Off-label use: these uses are reported in practice or the literature but are not part of the FDA-cleared indications. Physicians may use a cleared device off-label based on their medical judgment; the manufacturer may not promote off-label uses.

Practical Considerations

  • The available catheter sizes, lengths, infusion limits, and connector configuration should be confirmed in the manufacturer’s labeling before use.
  • Placement generally requires sterile technique and fluoroscopic or other appropriate imaging guidance through a venous access site.
  • Use only with compatible infusion pumps, tubing, syringes, and connectors; verify pressure and flow limits before infusion.
  • MRI safety is not established from the information provided. Confirm the exact device model and manufacturer labeling before an MRI examination.
  • Potential complications include bleeding, infection, venous injury, thrombosis, air embolism, malposition, and medication-related adverse effects. Contraindications and precautions depend on the intended infusion and the patient’s vascular condition.
