Adhesive medical device to reduce the risk of AVF needle dislodgement.

Developed and patented by a Nephrologist, Papyrus™ is a sterile single-use device designed to reduce the risk of catheter dislodgement from arteriovenous fistulas. Universal, Papyrus™ is suitable for both needles and soft catheters, making it possible to standardize the installation protocols.

Easy to use, Papyrus™ makes the actions of nursing staff safer, faster and more efficient, although their habits are still respected, since fixation by tie remains possible.

Improving patients’ quality of life is our priority, that is why Papyrus™ is made of a transparent film that ensures sterile occlusion of the puncture site without interfering with its monitoring. To limit the risk of irritation, the Papyrus™ adhesive is biocompatible and we reduced the surface in contact
with the skin to a minimum.

THE PAPYRUS DEVICE HAS SEVERAL ADVANTAGES:

  • A reduced adhesive surface
  • Sterile visibility of the puncture site
  • Strong catheter fixation to prevent dislodgement
  • Compatibility with all types of AVF and catheters
