Solid-body catheter including lateral distal openings

A catheter for vascular insertion, comprising:

• a catheter body including an outer wall enclosing a first lumen and a second lumen, the first lumen separated from the second lumen by a septum;
• an atraumatic nose portion at a distal end of the catheter body, the atraumatic nose portion defining a first distal opening in fluid communication with the first lumen and a second distal opening in fluid communication with the second lumen;
• a first lateral opening in fluid communication with the first lumen at the distal end of the catheter body proximal to the atraumatic nose portion, the first lateral opening defined by a skive cut through the outer wall of the catheter body, the skive cut defined by:
• a first cut at an angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the catheter body in a range from about 20 degrees to about 90 degrees;
• and
• a second cut at an angle relative to a plane through the septum of about 45 degrees or less;
• a second lateral opening in fluid communication with the second lumen at the distal end of the catheter body proximal to the atraumatic nose portion.
