Abstract
An integrated catheter assembly includes a housing member, an outer lumen member extending from the housing member, and a needle member having a needle slidably or movably coupled to the housing member, wherein the needle can be extended beyond the outer lumen. Once a flash of blood is confirmed the needle member is uncoupled from the housing member and removed from within the patient's vein or artery. A non-removable inner lumen member is connected to the housing member. The distal end of the outer lumen is sealed against the distal end of the inner lumen and includes at having at least one aperture to transfer blood out of the patient to the dialysis machine. The integrated catheter assembly therefore receives and delivers blood through a single injection site.
