The Merit Medical Prelude Prestige Splittable Sheath Introducer (REF PLPS-1008) is engineered for vascular access workflows that require reliable sheath introduction followed by controlled splitting and removal. Its splittable design supports the placement of catheters, leads or other devices that cannot be passed through a conventional hemostatic valve, while a hydrophilic coating on the sheath aids smooth insertion and tracking.

Key Features
Splittable sheath construction enabling peel-away removal over indwelling devices.
Hydrophilic coating designed to reduce insertion friction.
Hemostatic valve intended to limit blood loss and air ingress during device exchange.
Integrated sidearm with stopcock for flushing and aspiration.
Radiopaque markers and tapered dilator to support smooth vessel entry.
Color-coded hub for rapid identification of sheath size.

Clinical Applications
Percutaneous vascular access for diagnostic and interventional procedures.
Introduction of catheters, leads and devices that require a peelable sheath.
Procedures where sheath removal is needed without disturbing the indwelling device.
Use in cath lab, electrophysiology and interventional radiology suites by trained clinicians.
