 AVA - Increase Your Options
• Reduces risk of infection, only one site
• Reduces insertion time for clinician
• Reduces nurse line maintenance
• Less irritation to patient
 AVA - Increase Your Options
• TRIPLE lumen infusion + sheath + catheter insertion

• Employ only one insertion site which may reduce device

complications and infection

• Maximize flow rates with FLEXIBLE lumen walls

• Increase flexibility for rapid response to patients requiring a

second catheter insertion

• With AMC thromboshield
