Here you will find procedures that we have developed especially for you as a physician. Implantation of an indwelling catheter, such as drainova® or PleurX™/PeritX, is described step by step. But we also have procedures for treatment of patients with recurrent pleural effusion and ascites.

Do you want to insert an indwelling catheter for drainage of pleural effusion or ascites such as drainova® or PleurX™/PeritX? In that case you will find the different types of catheters and drainage materials here.

Do you have patients with recurrent, refractory pleural effusion? International guidelines recommend using indwelling catheters as “first-line treatment”. It reduces hospital admissions and improves patients’ quality of life. Watch our video above for more information. Please contact us if you want to know more!
