Abstract
An improved percutaneous introducer device is provided that provides a splittable sheath having a flared lead in for the facile introduction of ancillary medical implements, such as small diameter catheters, guide wires and the like, and a hub member being shaped to matingly underlie the flared lead in. When the hub is separated, such as by wings being pulled apart radially to the sheath, the sheath is longitudinally split, allowing it to be easily removed from an in situ catheter.
