The PleurX Access Kit is a catheter drainage system accessory designed for safe and sterile fluid management in patients using the PleurX indwelling catheter system. This single-use procedure kit contains essential sterile components for connecting, draining, and sealing the catheter during paracentesis or pleural effusion management. Each kit is preconfigured to support closed-system drainage, helping minimize contamination risk in home or clinical care settings.
Featuring a lockable access tip with a needleless valve, the Catheter Access Kit ensures controlled flow and reduced exposure to biohazards during fluid transfer. The inclusion of a 10 mL syringe, valve cap, alcohol pads, and an emergency slide clamp enables clinicians or trained caregivers to perform secure and hygienic drainage procedures. Optimized for use with PleurX drainage catheters, this setup enhances infection control, ease of use, and patient safety throughout routine and emergency fluid removal.
This pleural and peritoneal drainage accessory supports long-term fluid management in cases of malignant pleural effusion or ascites, providing an efficient, portable method to maintain patient comfort while avoiding repeated hospital procedures. The kit’s compact configuration allows for consistent aseptic technique, secure valve access, and minimal system exposure, aligning with home healthcare protocols and infection prevention best practices.
