Tuesday, AngioDynamics (ANGO) said it has released its new Total Abscession nephrostomy drainage catheter. The launch of this product completes the Total Abscession family of products - including general drains and a biliary drainage catheter - giving physicians and hospitals a full range of choice from one source.
The new drain is used in percutaneous nephrostomy drainage, a minimally invasive procedure in which a physician places this catheter through the skin in the back into the kidney to relieve pressure on the kidney from a back-up of urine. The Total Abscession nephrostomy drain has six side holes and a tight curl at the distal end of the catheter to ensure the drain tip lies completely inside of the pigtail shape, avoiding irritation of the renal pelvis.
