Bozemann Fritsch Catheter 12mm

Clinical Application

This 12 mm Bozemann Fritsch catheter provides a large-bore conduit for controlled fluid management during procedures that require higher flow rates than standard small-bore catheters. It is used to establish temporary access for irrigation, aspiration/suction, and drainage in operative settings where a 12 mm lumen facilitates efficient evacuation of fluids, rapid irrigation, or passage of ancillary devices. Typical clinical contexts include general and abdominal surgery, specialty procedures that require high-volume lavage, and any case where large-bore access improves procedural efficiency and visualization.

Design & Configuration

The catheter’s 12 mm diameter increases cross-sectional flow capacity, reducing procedure time for irrigation and suction compared with smaller calibers. A smooth, low-profile shaft and atraumatic tip geometry (common to this pattern) ease insertion, minimize tissue trauma at the access site, and help maintain patency under suction. The tubular configuration supports continuous effluent removal or infusion and allows connection to standard suction or irrigation circuits when compatible adaptors are used.

Instrument Specifications

• Model: Bozemann Fritsch catheter
• Diameter: 12 mm
• Configuration: tubular lumen for fluid transfer (large-bore)
• Intended uses: irrigation, suction/aspiration, drainage and temporary access during operative procedures

Material & Construction

Constructed for clinical handling and insertion with a focus on a smooth external surface and atraumatic tip profile to reduce tissue irritation during placement and removal. Shaft stiffness is balanced to permit controlled advancement while maintaining lumen patency during active suction and irrigation.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.

Brand Comparison

Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
