What are four advantages of multiple-hole and side-hole catheter configurations over end-hole catheter configurations?
What are four advantages of multiple-hole and side-hole catheter configurations over end-hole catheter configurations?
1. Reduce the resistance to flow; used for high-volume injection
2 Minimize trauma to the vessel wall from forceful injections
3. Reduce the recoil of the catheter
4. Improve the distribution of contrast within the lumen of large vessels
