Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters (PICCs) that incorporate Endexo (a proprietary polymer blend) into the polyurethane catheter shaft material to provide a shaft surface more resistant to accumulation of blood components; namely BioFlo PICCs.
The BioFlo PICC is packaged with a variety of commonly used procedural accessories, which are used for percutaneous introduction of the catheter. The BioFlo PICC is intended to be inserted, manipulated, and removed only by a qualified, licensed physician or other healthcare practitioner authorized by and under the direction of such a physician.
 
The device allows for repeated access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy for long term use for up to 30 days or more, for administration of fluids, medications and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and power injection of contrast media.
