Device Story
PowerGlide® Midline Catheter is a sterile, single-use intravascular catheter for short-term (<30 days) vascular access. Device components include an introducer needle with a passive safety mechanism, a guidewire, and a single-lumen catheter rated for power injection. Available in 18G (8cm or 10cm) and 22G (8cm) sizes. Used by clinicians in clinical settings to sample blood or administer intravenous fluids. The device provides a pathway for fluid delivery or blood withdrawal; the safety mechanism on the introducer needle is designed to reduce sharps injury risk. Benefits include reliable vascular access for patients requiring short-term therapy.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated per 21 CFR §820.30 using established standards including ISO 10555-1/5 (catheter requirements), ISO 11070 (introducer), ISO 23908/23907 (sharps protection), and ISO 10993 (biocompatibility). Testing confirmed device met all predetermined acceptance criteria for mechanical integrity, radiopacity (ASTM F640), and sterilization (ISO 11135).
Technological Characteristics
Single-lumen intravascular catheter; 18G and 22G sizes. Materials include stainless steel needle tubing (ISO 9626). Features passive safety mechanism for sharps injury protection (ISO 23908). Includes luer taper fittings (ISO 594-1/2). Radiopaque. Sterilized via ethylene oxide (ISO 11135). Rated for power injection.
Indications for Use
Indicated for any patient population requiring short-term (<30 days) vascular access for blood sampling or intravenous fluid administration, contingent upon adequate vascular anatomy and procedural appropriateness. Suitable for use with power injectors.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intravascular catheter is a device that consists of a slender tube and any necessary connecting fittings and that is inserted into the patient's vascular system for short term use (less than 30 days) to sample blood, monitor blood pressure, or administer fluids intravenously. The device may be constructed of metal, rubber, plastic, or a combination of these materials.
