11. Attach Suture Wings
• Remove the suture wing from the delivery card.
• Squeeze the suture wing together so that it splits open.
• Place the suture wing around the catheter near the venipuncture site.
• If the “Y” adapter of the dual lumen catheter is at the insertion site,
the suture wing will not be needed.
Caution To minimize the risk of catheter breakage and embolization,
the suture wing and “Y” adapter must be secured in place. See step
18.
12. Remove the Stylet/ Assembly
• Stabilize the catheter position by applying light pressure to the vein
distal to the insertion site.
• Slowly remove the stylet.
• Caution: Never use force to remove the stylet. Resistance can dam-
age the catheter. If resistance or bunching of the catheter is
observed, stop stylet withdrawal and allow the catheter to return to
normal shape. Withdraw both the catheter and stylet together approx-
imately 2 cm and reattempt stylet removal. Repeat
this procedure until the stylet is easily removed.
