Medical Double-Lumen Single-Color And Dual-Color Catheters

Medical double-lumen single-color and dual-color catheters are specialized medical devices used for various applications, including intravenous therapy, blood transfusions, and fluid drainage. These catheters consist of two lumens or channels running side by side within a single tube, allowing for the simultaneous flow of different substances.

The single-color double-lumen catheter typically has both lumens made of the same material and color. This design helps in distinguishing between different types of fluids or drugs being administered. For example, one lumen may be used for delivering medications or fluids, while the other lumen is used for blood sampling or monitoring.

On the other hand, dual-color double-lumen catheters have lumens made of different materials or colors to help differentiate the functions or contents of each lumen. This design is particularly useful when administering complex treatments or procedures that require accurate identification and separation of different substances.
