UreSil Tru-Set Locking System
User Friendly


The Tru-Set locking
system is designed to be
user friendly and allows
for a secure, leak
resistant hub (in both the
locked and unlocked
position) with a one-step
locking process.
What makes the system
so superior to the other
locking systems is its
patent pending thread
securing mechanism and
sealing process.
Locking the Pigtail

For the One-step locking
method, merely pull the thread
tight to form the pigtail and
engage the locking
mechanism by sliding the
housing to the proximal end of
the hub until you hear or feel a
positive “click”. Cut the
excess suture.

If suture storage is desired,
pull the suture to form the
pigtail and wrap the suture in
the channel provided prior to
sliding the locking mechanism.

Suture Storage
Notch

To wrap the suture pull it
straight out and then hook it in
the notch at the bottom of the
retention channel.
Suture retention post

Wrap the suture into the
channel. On the last wrap,
hook the suture behind the
“suture retention post”.
Securing the Suture


Slide
To secure the suture and
prevent it from unraveling,
slide the housing to the
proximal end of the hub
until you hear or feel a
positive “click”.
The excess suture can be
removed. The suture will
remain in the channel and
will be available once the
hub is disengaged.
Unlocking the Tru-Set System
Release tab

To unlock the hub for catheter
removal, you can cut the tube or
depress the blue release tab
with your finger, or the tip of a
small instrument and slide the
housing to the unlock position.
This procedure will automatically
release the suture from the
locking mechanism. Remove
the catheter.

If suture was retained, after
releasing the locking
mechanism, unwrap the suture
from the retention channel to
release the pigtail and then
remove the catheter.
