Interventional technology firm Cook reported that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has cleared the latest iteration of the developer's Spectrum catheter.
The five-lumen central venous catheter is designed to both improve multiple treatment administration and provide increased protection against hospital-based catheter-related bloodstream infections, according to Bloomington, IN-based Cook.
The device is available now, the company said.
