Millar wins expanded CE Mark for Mikro-Cath pressure catheter

Millar has received a CE Mark approval expansion for its Mikro-Cath Pressure Catheter. The expansion now includes airway and intra-compartmental pressure measurements.

The new expansion will give physicians the opportunity to make improvements in respiratory care while delivering a continuous monitoring technique for measuring compartment pressure and diagnosing acute compartment syndrome at onset.

Mikro-Cath can be easily integrated into more critical care programs for trauma patients that need ventilation treatment. The pressure catheter offers an increased level of continuous data accuracy for respiratory and compartment pressure applications.

“This has been a long awaited approval and we look forward to working with physicians that have been eager to utilize the Mikro-Cath for these applications. We anticipate that this will open an opportunity for an improvement in patient care, specifically in the respiratory market,” Matthew Davis, director of international sales and business development at Millar, said in a press release.

Millar also recently received ISO 13485:2016 certification for its quality management system.
