1 ARROW-Clark VectorFlow Hemodialysis Catheter Because in Chronic Hemodialysis Catheters, the tip matters

2 We never settle because you never settle. Teleflex is a global provider of medical technology designed to enable healthcare providers to protect against infections and improve patient and provider safety. A trusted resource and partner for our customers, we specialize in products for vascular access, respiratory care, pain management, airway management, cardiac care, interventional access, urology and surgery. Teleflex also provides specialty products for device manufacturers.

3 Because in Chronic Hemodialysis Catheters, the tip matters Designed for Better Performance Tip design optimizes catheter flow and minimizes recirculation Sidehole design reduces the loss of lock solution +, a contributing factor in reducing the risk of thrombus adherence 1 Catheter tip design reduces the risk of platelet damage caused by shear stress +, helping to reduce the risk of thrombus accumulation on catheter surface 2 SIDEHOLE DESIGN optimizes catheter flow and reduces loss of lock solution + MINIMAL RECIRCULATION deflects venous blood away from the catheter, in a direction opposite to blood entering the catheter in arterial lumen SYMMETRICAL TIP allows for ease of placement over guidewire EASY TO READ CATHETER information on clamp inserts

4 VectorFlow Catheter makes it easy for you Designed for Ease of Placement No stylet needed for insertion, resulting in fewer steps when compared to catheters requiring a stylet Antegrade and Retrograde placement available Catheter tip design allows for placement flexibility with minimal impact on recirculation ++ Distance from Distal Tip to Most Proximal Side Opening 2.5 DESIGN OF CATHETER allows for tip location flexibility with minimal impact on recirculation* ++ Distance (cm) % more length of the distal tip.5 SVC 0 VectorFlow Catheter Palindrome Catheter MID RIGHT ATRIUM
