Reason

In some instances, priming volumes for the MAHURKAR and Argyle acute catheters were established using the maximum calculated volume plus an additional volume to ensure the catheter was fully locked. This approach was chosen to ensure that the lumen is always fully primed, minimizing risk of catheter thrombosis. Therefore, the printed priming volumes on current MAHURKAR And Argyle acute catheters and IFUs exceed the actual locking volume needed to fully fill each lumen. Depending on the catheter size and configuration, a variation from 0.1 mL - 0.5 mL per lumen from the printed priming value (actual locking volume would be lower) could be observed.
