Twin lumen catheter has a central connecting strip (13) between two separate catheters (1, 2), e.g. a venous and an arterial catheter. The strip extends to the distal end (8) of one catheter while the other (7) extends beyond it. Independent claims are included for: (A) a method for making the catheter by gluing the separate catheters to an extruded connecting strip; (B) a method for making the catheter by filling the gap between them with an adhesive sealant which forms the connecting strip; (C) a twin lumen catheter with a connecting strip as described, but in which the strip does n9ot extend to the ends of the separate catheters; and (D) two methods for making this catheter, as described for the first catheter. |
