TITAN-PORT APH (exctracorporeal apheresis) is a fully implantable port catheter system providing an access facility for performing extracorporeal apheresis. The set contains a titanium port chamber with a self-sealing silicone membrane and a single-lumen polyurethane catheter for connection to the port chamber and fixing to the outlet tube with a screw. Each system also includes a special puncture needle SFN 1835 B, an introducer set, a tunnelizer, a vein lifter, a rinsing needle, a port cannulae SFN 0930 G, user instructions and an implant card.
The single-lumen polyurethane catheter (10 F, with an outer diameter 3.35 mm, an inner diameter 2.0 mm, total length 70 cm and internal volume of 0.31 mL per 10 cm) has at the distal end a fishmouth tip. If necessary the catheter can be shortened at the proximal end. After implantation, the distal tip reduces adsorption at the vessel wall, thereby also improving the flow rate.
TITAN port catheter systems are MR conditional safe. We will be happy to provide you with further information on request.
The TITAN-PORT APH allows repeated vascular access for therapeutical apheresis.
The advantage is a low risk of infection, simplified access and considerably improved quality of life for the patient as provided by a closed system.
Intended purpose: The port catheter system is only used to pass blood and medication into or out of the patient’s vascular system. The product itself thus fulfils a physical property and has no medical, therapeutic effect.
Operators: Medical professionals (doctors, nurses) with appropriate qualifications.

Only special non-coring port needles should be used to puncture the port membrane.
Depending on indication and flow rate different special puncture needles can be used, e.g. the DPK 2035, SFN 1835 B and SFN 1535 B as well as the smaller SFN® safety port needles, e. g. SFN 0930 B and SFN 0930 G.
The needles exhibit a unique bevel and angle at the tip. This prevents punch defects at the membrane when the needle is inserted. Each system contains a suitable needle. Appropriate accessories can be ordered separately if required.
