If the Vetlen Pouch port disconnects from the catheter completely, itβs a simple replacement. Attach the Luer-Lock to the barb connector by turning firmly clockwise to ensure a tight fit. Wipe the end of the catheter with an alcohol swab and then insert the barbed end of the assembled piece firmly onto the end of the catheter, ensuring the connector is fully pushed in. You must use surgical tape to secure the Luer-Lock assembly to the catheter tube. Replace the cap on the Luer-Lock assembly. If you have additional questions, check out our
How-To Videos! Additional replacement ports can be purchased
here. If a patient is sent home with the pouch, an extra connector/port has been placed in the
At-Home Care Kit if purchased.
