CATHETER ASSEMBLY WITH SEAL MEMBER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve a catheter assembly provided with a hemostatic seal.SOLUTION: An actuator (16) for a catheter assembly (10) comprises: a shaft (46) of a first cross-sectional dimension; an eyelet portion (48) having an eyelet shaft (53) of a second cross-sectional dimension; and a barb (50) having a third cross-sectional dimension. The third cross-sectional dimension is larger than the first cross-sectional dimension and the second cross-sectional dimension. The second cross-sectional dimension is of approximately the same size as a diameter of a needle cannula (40) to be used together with the catheter assembly (10).
