  1. While Vygon is known for its high-quality products, exploring alternatives like the Modified Seldinger Introducer (MST) Kit by Neo Medical is important for ensuring we have the best options available. This allows us to compare features, benefits, and pricing to make the most informed decision for our needs. Evaluating various suppliers can lead to better outcomes in terms of innovation, efficiency, and overall performance in medical procedures. We did tried Neo Medical; however, our team preferred the Vygon set.
  2. Thanks for your nice words @Stefan Johansson The venflon has two major drawbacks. The first is the lumen, which is only suitable for a 1Fr. PICC. Secondly the venflon itself can’t be removed. This results either in a venflon which stays in the vein or the venflon making it difficult to place proper dressing for fixation and stabilization. In short: yes please explore the micro-MST set which should be available e.g. by Vygon or NeoMed (US based). More than happy to support a potential shift to better and best evidence based practice.
  3. fped-12-1395395 2.pdf The study underscores the viability of MST facilitated by an all-in- one micro kit for neonatal PICC insertion. Utilized by adept and trained inserters, this approach is associated with improved first-attempt success rates, decreased catheter-related complications, and fewer incidences of CLABSI. However…..enjoy reading.
