B. Braun Corodyn thermodilution catheters in detail
The Corodyn thermodilution catheters are used to measure haemodynamic pressure and cardiac output. The catheters are equipped with different features:
- Corodyn P1: Balloon indwelling catheter with distal lumen
- Corodyn P2: Balloon indwelling catheter with two lumens for simultaneous pressure measurement or infusion and medication administration
. infusion and medication administration - Corodyn TD: four-lumen thermodilution catheter with one lumen for pressure measurement, one lumen for cold bolus administration, thermistor and balloon lumen
- Corodyn TDI: five-lumen thermodilution catheter with additional lumen for simultaneous pressure measurement or infusion and medication administration
- Corodyn TDI: five-lumen thermodilution catheter with additional lumen for simultaneous pressure measurement or infusion and medication administration. infusion and medication administration
- Corodyn touch free: catheter with pre-assembled "touch free" foil protection tube
The Corodyn P and TD variants have markings every 100 mm from the catheter tip for exact catheter positioning. They are easy to handle and safe to insert. They are also radiopaque and have excellent pressure transmission. The TD and TDI versions also have a thermistor (3.5 cm) from the catheter tip. They also have a special three-pin plug for connection to all standard computers and patient monitors.
