Catheter advancing assembly having a stylet including a shaft, and a catheter advancing piece including a rod having a bore therethrough. The bore of the rod accommodates a portion of the shaft of the stylet. A holding unit affixed to the proximal end of the shaft, to be used in conjunction with a grasping unit affixed to the rod, allows for the holding and manipulation of the catheter advancing assembly with only one hand. A method for making a catheter advancing assembly of the invention is disclosed, as well as a method for advancing a ventricular catheter within a ventricular catheter in a "soft" manner using only one hand.
