Abstract
Disclosed herein are rapidly insertable central catheters ('RICCs'), RICC assemblies, and methods thereof. For example, a RICC can include a catheter tube, a suture wing disposed over a medial portion of the catheter tube, a hub coupled to a proximal portion of the catheter tube, and a number of extension legs extending from the hub. The catheter tube can include a first section in a distal portion of the catheter tube and a second section proximal of the first section. The suture wing can include a projection opposite a patient-facing side of the suture wing and a needle through hole through the projection. The needle through hole can be configured to accept a needle therethrough for insertion of the needle into a primary lumen of the catheter tube, which passes through a catheter-tube through hole through the suture wing. A method of the RICC can include using the RICC.
