Atrium Silicone Thoracic and Mediastinal Catheters set the standard for soft, kink-resistant, superior strength silicone chest tube catheters. Atrium’s premium quality silicone provides unsurpassed high tear strength to reduce the risk of tearing or breaking as well as enhancing drainage visibility. While the flared connector tip provides easy stab wound placement and fast, secure connection to chest drain tubing, the soft silicone easily conforms to chest anatomy for improved patient comfort and drainage efficiency. Available with or without Atrium’s patented HydraGlide™ coating, a permanent, covalently bonded heparin complex which helps inhibit adherent clot formation and significantly reduces mechanical irritation to heart & lung tissues due to its ultra-low coefficient of friction.
