Argyle UVC Insertion Tray containing Safety Scalpel N11 (vendor part number 73-1811). Intended for use to insert an Umbilical Venous Catheter (UVC) into the umbilical artery or vein of neonate. Product Code: 43201

The current Argyle UVC Insertion Tray does not include a specific IFU to operate the Safety Scalpel N11. The Safety Scalpel N11 features a permanent locking feature that will not allow the clinician to unlock the scalpel once the safety shield is closed and pushed forward into a locked position may result in a delay treatment/therapy, which could ultimately result in death.
