A catheter system is suitable for the simultaneous, continuous, mutually unaffected
measurement of the centrovenous oxygen saturation and the local concentration of
injected indocyanine green. It has a centrovenous catheter with a fiber-optic lumen
and a fiber-optic probe that can be inserted into the fiber-optic lumen for taking
reflecto-oximetric measurements at a first wavelength of 660 nm, a second measuring
wavelength of 805 nm and a reference wavelength of 880 nm. To prevent a longitudinal
shift of the fiber-optic probe relative to the fiber-optic lumen, a connecting
piece, securely connected to the fiber-optic probe, and a counterpart, securely
connected to the catheter, are provided which can be joined together. The fiber-optic
lumen which continues in the interior of the connecting piece can be cleaned when
the connecting piece is attached to the counterpart. For this purpose, the connecting
piece has a cleansing attachment for connecting a cleansing device. The cleaning
takes place through the cleansing channel.
