摘要： A catheter assembly and method is disclosed which comprises a catheter having a coating on at least a part of its length intended to produce a low-friction surface on the catheter when treated with an activating substance in the form of a vapor. The catheter assembly also includes a catheter package forming an interior space divided by a gas permeable, liquid impermeable barrier into a first cavity and a second cavity. The first cavity of the catheter package accommodates the catheter therein and the second cavity accommodates at least a quantity of liquid in its liquid phase therein. The liquid in the second cavity can change phase into a vapor capable of passing from the second cavity, through the barrier, and into the first cavity where the vapor can activate the coating. As a result, the vapor produced when the liquid changes phase causes the coating on the catheter to be activated to thereby produce the low-friction surface on the catheter so it is ready-to-use when it reaches the end user.

摘要翻译： 公开了一种导管组件和方法，其包括具有至少一部分长度上的涂层的导管，用于当用蒸气形式的活化物质处理时在导管上产生低摩擦表面。 导管组件还包括形成内部空间的导管封套，该内部空间被透气的液体不可渗透屏障分隔成第一空腔和第二空腔。 导管组件的第一腔容纳其中的导管，并且第二腔容纳至少一定量的其液相中的液体。 第二腔中的液体可以将相变成能够从第二空腔通过阻挡层的蒸气，并且进入第一腔体，其中蒸气可以激活涂层。 结果，当液体变化相时产生的蒸气导致导管上的涂层被激活，从而在导管上产生低摩擦表面，使得当它到达最终用户时它是即用型的。

摘要： A catheter product package and method of forming same in which the package comprises a sheet material wrapped about the catheter product to form a package for the catheter product. The catheter product extends generally longitudinally within the package, and the sheet material extends from a point beyond the proximal end to a point beyond the distal end of the catheter product. The sheet material of the package is wrapped about the catheter product in a manner defining confronting proximal end edges, confronting distal end edges, and confronting side edges. The confronting proximal end edges, distal end edges and side edges of the sheet material are joined by a seal after the sheet material is wrapped about the catheter product to define a sealed cavity. The sheet material has a tear strip affixed to it which causes the sheet material to tear along the tear strip to thereby cause the package to open along an intended opening line. A method of forming a package for a catheter product comprises the steps of providing a sheet material for the package and placing the catheter product on the sheet material. It also includes affixing a tear strip to the sheet material and wrapping the sheet material around the catheter product. Further, the method includes the step of sealing the sheet material to form a sealed cavity with the catheter product being disposed within the sealed cavity.

摘要翻译： 导管产品包装及其形成方法，其中包装包括围绕导管产品缠绕的片材以形成用于导管产品的包装。 导管产品在包装内大致纵向地延伸，并且片材从超过近端的点延伸到超过导管产品的远端的点。 包装的片材以围绕近端边缘，面对远端边缘和面对侧边缘的方式围绕导管产品缠绕。 在片材围绕导管产品缠绕以限定密封空腔之后，片材的面对的近端边缘，远端边缘和侧边缘通过密封件接合。 片材具有固定到其上的撕裂条，其导致片材沿着撕裂带撕裂，从而使包装沿着预期的开口线打开。 形成用于导管产品的包装的方法包括以下步骤：提供用于包装的片材材料并将导管产品放置在片材上。 它还包括将撕裂带固定在片材上并将片材缠绕在导管产品周围。 此外，该方法包括密封片材以形成密封空腔的步骤，导管产品设置在密封腔内。

摘要： A sheet material wrapped about a catheter to form a package. The catheter extends generally longitudinally within the package, and the sheet material extends from a point beyond the proximal end to a point beyond the distal end of the catheter. Confronting proximal end edges, distal end edges and side edges of the sheet material are joined by a seal to define a sealed cavity. The sheet material has a tear strip affixed thereto which causes the package to open along an intended opening line. A gas permeable, liquid impermeable barrier divides the sealed cavity into a first compartment within which the catheter is contained and a second compartment within which a wick wetted with an aqueous liquid is entirely confined.
