TITAN-PORT Systems (Arterial/Venous) are fully implantable port systems consisting of an injection chamber (port) a screw closure mechanism, a self-sealing membrane, and a catheter. Each system includes a special puncture needle, this instruction guide, and a patient ID-card. Suitable introducer sets are available separately.

The port chamber consists of hypoallergenic biocompatible titanium. This material is non-magnetic. The base plate has openings for securing the system with sutures to the fascia. The port chamber and the catheter can be disconnected.

The TITAN-PORT UA system differs from other typical port/catheter systems by having a lateral access (instead of from above) and is punctured with a straight port needle.

The silicone membrane can be punctured up to 3000 times with the enclosed non-coring special puncture needle. The membrane possesses a high-pressure stability and ensures proper positioning of the needle when placed.

Only special non-coring port-needles (SFN®-port needles recommended) should be used for puncture of the port membrane. These needles exhibit a unique bevel at the tip.
This prevents punch defects of the membrane when the needle is advanced. The SFN Port Needle 0930 G, 20 Gauge is recommended for this system. Each system contains a suitable needle.

The catheter can be shortened to the individual length required. It bears radiopaque calibration markings at 5 cm intervals, and is conically tapered at the tip.
