Highlights

By combining advances in polyurethane material technology and manufacturing processes, BD offers a family of smaller-diameter* Modified Seldinger Technique (MST) midlines that maintain high performance for infusion therapy.

It’s time for a change!

Historically, the use of smaller-diameter midlines has meant reductions in flow rates and power-injection capabilities forcing clinicians to choose between a smaller catheter to vein ratio or infusion performance.

At BD, we believe that smaller-diameter* midlines can make a difference. Provena™ Midline Catheters occupy a smaller percentage of the vessel compared to PowerMidline™ Catheters of the same lumen configuration and yet maintain high performance for infusion therapy providing clinicians with a variety of options to meet their preferred catheter-to-vein ratio.

Let’s make a quick comparison…

Features and Benefits

Smaller catheter*
  • Smaller-diameter Modified Seldinger Technique (MST) midline that maintains high performance for infusion therapy
  • Created through a combination of engineering expertise and polyurethane material technology
  • Proprietary polyurethane material allows for thin catheter walls and large lumen sizes
Small reverse taper
  • Provides kink resistance for multiple dressing orientation
  • Allows for gentle plugging of the insertion site
Power injectable The catheter allows for injection of contrast media for CT scans at maximum flow rates:
  • 3 Fr single lumen: 6 mL/sec
  • 4 Fr dual lumen: 6 mL/sec
High-quality kit components
  • Available in Basic and Bedside tray configurations.
Distally trimmable
  • A distally trimmable catheter allows for customization to each patient’s anatomy
Compatibility
  • Compatible with StatLock™ Stabilization Devices
Clear identification
  • Hub design and catheter labeling further identify the catheter as a midline. This helps eliminate catheter confusion and promotes patient safety
Softening polyurethane
  • A polyurethane catheter that softens at body temperature
No placement X-ray
  • No X-ray is required following the placement procedure
