Figure Lengend Snippet: Introducing catheter components. Top: original configuration of a Tuohy Borst (Qosina 80402); Male Luer Lock Tubing Connector (Qosina 71637); and hemostasis valve y -connector (Qosina 80325), which connects to the 5.5 fr SSG catheter (Cook J-SSG-554086). Bottom: current configuration of a Tuohy Borst Adapter from the modified Novy cornual cannulation set, a female Luer lock to male Luer lock connector (Qosina 17656), two female Luer locks to male Luer lock connectors (Qosina 80379) connect to the 5.5 fr modified Novy cornual cannulation catheter (Cook J-NCS-504070) with included y -connector, inner catheter, and 0.35” guide wire.
Article Snippet: We assembled these components consisting of a hemostasis valve y connector (Qosina 80325), Luer lock tubing connector (Qosina 71637), and Tuohy Borst valve adapter (Qosina, 80402), as shown in (top), to enable saline flushing through the introducing catheter around the falloposcope inside.
