drainova® ArgentiC catheter

drainova® ArgentiC catheter

Catheter with micro-silver

The tunneled ArgentiC catheter enables recurrent drainage in patients with recurrent malignant and non-malignant pleural effusions or ascites in inpatient and home settings. The catheter is made of biocompatible silicone with embedded micro-silver. The silver ions have an antimicrobial effect on the catheter surface and reduce the risk of infection without having a systemic effect.
