Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods and kits for flushing an interior lumen of an implanted catheter prior to closing the catheter between successive uses. <P>SOLUTION: Implanted catheters are locked with a solution comprising a lower alcohol, typically ethanol, propanol, or butanol, most preferably isopropanol, and an additive, the additive comprising an anti-microbial, typically taurolidine or triclosan, or an anti-coagulant, typically riboflavin, sodium citrate, ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid, or citric acid. The use of an alcohol and additive solution can effectively reduce fouling of the catheter, particularly clotting and thrombus in intravascular catheters, as well as reduce the risk of infections. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
