Device type (GMDN): Centrally-inserted central venous catheter

A flexible tube intended to be introduced into a neck or thoracic vein and often advanced into the superior vena cava for various infusion/aspiration procedures (i.e., non-dedicated) including the intravenous administration of nutrients, fluids, chemotherapeutic agents or other drugs, and blood sampling or delivery; it may also be used to monitor venous pressure. The proximal end of this central venous catheter (CVC) is typically fixed to the patient for long-term use. It may include supportive devices associated with introduction (e.g., guidewire, introducer); it is not primarily intended for extracorporeal blood therapies such as haemodialysis. This is a single-use device.
