ANTI-INFECTION CATHETER ARRANGEMENT

摘要

Anti-infection catheter arrangement comprising a catheter which has a rigid or flexible catheter tube with a connection piece at the distal end, characterized by a filling and suction device which can be attached to the connection piece and one or more active principle reservoirs with a total volume equal to the capacity of the catheter, possibly in addition the volume of intermediate pieces, in particular a three-way valve. This volume is entirely filled and at least one of the active principle reservoirs is filled with a substance containing at least one antibiotic or one chemotherapeutic or antiviral agent, preferably aminoglycoside, in particular gentamycin, in at least a minimal effective concentration.
