Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right size KD-OBT obturator for my catheter?
The obturator must match the gauge of your KDM catheter. Refer to the color code: green for 18G, pink for 20G and blue for 22G. This correspondence ensures a hermetic and secure closure.
Why use an obturator during infusion interruption?
