Arterial Leadercath is a catheter for arterial access inserted by the Seldinger technique.

Although it can be inserted in a variety of arteries, the most common sites for the placement of this catheter are the radial and the femoral artery.
The Seldinger technique makes arterial puncture easier particularly in hypotensive patients with a weak peripheral pulse and when arteries are atherosclerosed or narrow.

• The combination of pressure-resistant polyethylene catheter material, catheter diameter, and catheter length delivers consistent arterial pressure signal transmission even for extended dwell times, for adults, children, and newborns.
• Smooth catheter placement thanks to the soft transition between the tapered catheter tip and the guidewire.
• Naturally echogenic needle allowing an easy and uniform arterial insertion with a precision triangular edge.
