Description
TauroLock® catheter locking solution protects your patient from catheter-associated risks. Containing a combination of Heparin, Taurolodine and low concentrations of Citrate, you no longer have to compromise on patency or infection control. TauroLock® is used to prevent infections in catheter and port systems. Heparin and 4% citrate only have an anticoagulant effect, but no bactericidal properties. Consequently, contamination of the catheter can lead to bacteraemia. Prophylactic use of TauroLock™ prevents the formation of a biofilm and thus improves the patency of the catheter and/or port.
