Improving
Catheter
Safety
The Solution is Cathaid™
Cathaid™ seamlessly replaces the flawed standard of care with one simple to use device. Cathaid™ gives clinicians the ability to detect positional shifts, secure the catheter, and provides a full medical seal around the entry site. These all act to safeguard the patient while adding fidelity to high risk medical catheters. The patented ability to detect positional shifts is a market first capability. Cathaid™ is poised to replace a clumsy standard of care that simply does not provide adequate protections for medical catheters.
Cathaid™ can also be manufactured to accommodate the differing types of catheters available on the market. This allows for flexibility in how Cathaid™ can be applied in differing medical fields while maintaining its designed functionality.
01
Positional Alert
Cathaid's Positional Verification System allows clinicians the ability to detect dangerous positional shifts without using radio-graphic methods. Health care providers of all levels can easily detect changes through the easy to use positional indicator.
02
Full Seal
Cathaid's full seal protects the catheter by keeping out liquids and other hazardous substances. All while providing breathability, dressing integrity and up to 7 days of continuous use.
03
Securement
By applying Cathaid to a medical catheter, a clinician can be assured that optimal positioning will be held during the lifetime of catheter usage. Cathaid's securement mechanism locks the catheter securely with a strong layer of medical grade adhesive.
Easy Installation and Removal
Medical catheters are invaluable tools in modern medicine and their usage extends into almost every aspect of modern medicine. Each year, over 300 million medical catheters are used around the world. While they are a invaluable tool for doctors, their use is not without risks. Catheter associated infections and inadvertent positional shifts are a major source of morbidity and mortality for patients.
Even with the standard of care using up to four products to protect the catheter, 25% of catheters will experience a failure due to infection and other complications. Additionally, health care providers are unable to assess positional changes without utilizing radio-graphic imaging. This exposes the patient to unnecessary radiation and is financially costly for the healthcare system.
