Device typeUmbilical catheter: A very thin flexible tube designed for umbilical blood vessel access in neonates, typically for the infusion of fluids. It is used mainly in arterial catheterization procedures, but venous catheterization is also possible. It will typically have a double or triple lumen to enable additional concurrent functions such as vital sign monitoring and blood sampling (e.g., for blood gas analysis). This is a single-use device.
