Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter

US Patent:
4184497, Jan 22, 1980
Filed:
Aug 26, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/828019
Inventors:
Willem J. Kolff - Salt Lake City UT
Thomas R. Kessler - Salt Lake City UT
Assignee:
University of Utah - Salt Lake City UT
International Classification:
A61M 500, A61M 2500
US Classification:
131213A
Abstract:
An implantable catheter for subcutaneous placement defining a tubular member which carries an enlarged, hollow, needle-pierceable member on one end thereof. The enlarged hollow member is implanted under the skin. The catheter defines a pair of angled turns, each of the angled turns occupying a plane which defines approximately a 90 degree angle to the plane of the other angle. This permits the enlarged portion of the catheter to be horizontally positioned subcutaneously, relative to an erect patient, while the end of the tubular catheter extends to its desired location in the peritoneal cavity.
