Insertion Instructions
13. Remove Non-Splittable Introducer
• Remove non-splittable introducer.
• Slide the non-splittable introducer off the proximal end of the
catheter.
14. Modification of Catheter Length
Single Lumen Catheters Only
• Using a sharp scalpel or sterile scis-
sors, carefully cut the catheter leav-
ing at least 4 cm to 7 cm of the
catheter for connector attachment.
• Inspect cut surface to assure there is
no loose material.
15. Attach Connector to Single Lumen Catheters
• Retrieve the oversleeve portion of the connector and advance it over
the end of the catheter. If you feel some resistance while advancing
the oversleeve, gently twist back and forth or spin to ease its pas-
sage over the catheter.
• Gently advance the catheter onto the connector blunt until it butts up
against the colored plastic body. The catheter should lie flat on the
blunt without any kinks.
