Yes, the MAHURKAR™* QPLUS™* High Flow Acute Care Catheter contains a strain relief at the juncture of the catheter shaft and the hub, which provides a secure transition of the catheter shaft and hub. The hub material extends further down the catheter shaft preventing kinking of the catheter during insertion, which makes it ideal for femoral and left-sided internal jugular placements.
