Ochsner gallbladder trocar 6" 26 French for 22 French catheter

Purpose-built access for 22 French catheter placement

The Ochsner gallbladder trocar is a 6-inch surgical access instrument intended for use with a 22 French catheter. Its 26 French trocar size provides a defined pathway for catheter placement within general surgery workflows, while the 6-inch length supports access where added reach is useful. Designed around the requirements of gallbladder catheter applications, it helps clinicians work with a compatible catheter size and a dedicated instrument rather than adapting an unsuitable access device. This focused configuration supports organized handling, consistent setup, and practical integration into procedures requiring catheter access.

Use Cases

• Establish access for placement of a 22 French catheter in gallbladder procedures.
• Support general surgery workflows requiring a dedicated gallbladder trocar.
• Use the 6-inch length when the procedure calls for extended instrument reach.
• Coordinate trocar selection with a 22 French catheter during procedural setup.
