In haemodynamic monitoring, the quality of arterial access has a direct impact on the reliability of measurements and on the day-to-day management of the device. For this reason, the choice of arterial cannula must be guided by technical features that combine precision, stability and ease of use in clinical practice.
Delta Arterial Cannula is the solution developed by the Numantec Group to support continuous arterial monitoring and blood sampling. Its design responds to the practical needs of healthcare professionals while also contributing to the quality and continuity of the patient care pathway.
Key Features of Delta Arterial Cannula
Delta Arterial Cannula is a single-lumen arterial cannula available in 3 Fr and 4 Fr versions, designed to ensure reliability throughout the entire period of use.
Made of radiopaque polyurethane, it combines flexibility and stability, supporting effective management of arterial access even in more complex clinical settings.
The cannula is available with:
- 3 Fr diameter and 8 cm length;
- 4 Fr diameter and 10 cm length;
- pressure resistance of up to 330 PSI;
- red hub for immediate identification of the arterial access;
- integrated fixation wings for enhanced device stability.
These features allow the cannula to be adapted to different clinical requirements while maintaining high standards of performance.
Facilitated Insertion Using the Seldinger Technique
One of the distinctive features of Delta Arterial Cannula is its insertion system, designed to support the Seldinger technique. In addition to the catheter, the kit includes an echogenic introducer needle and a stainless-steel guidewire with an atraumatic tip.
The ultrasound visibility of the needle, together with the presence of the guidewire, supports a more controlled and precise procedure, helping to ensure correct device placement.
Stability and Monitoring Quality
The cannula has been designed to ensure consistent performance throughout the entire period of use.
The polyurethane material helps maintain high-quality transmission of the pressure waveform, an essential factor in obtaining accurate invasive arterial blood pressure measurements.
The integrated fixation wings also support device stabilisation, helping to reduce the risk of unintended displacement and unnecessary manipulation.
Overall, Delta Arterial Cannula, the result of a combination of dedicated materials, configurations and procedural components, is an optimal solution to support healthcare professionals in their daily arterial monitoring and sampling activities, with an approach focused on operational efficiency and continuity of clinical care.
