Dear John:

I am very pleased to inform you that CoreStates Bank, N.A. has approved an 
increase to $45,000,000.00 to the Line of Credit available for use by the 
Borrowers, as more fully described in the Letter Agreement dated February

$10,000,000.00 bullet loan which was advanced on February 8, 1994.  The 
Line of Credit will continue to be subject to all of the terms and conditions 
outlined in the February 25, 1993 Letter Agreement, and to the terms and 
conditions as are outlined in the $45,000,000.00 "Master Demand Note" and 
Addendum thereto, of approximately equal date herewith.

To the best of the Borrower's knowledge and subject to the proviso 
pertaining to the Berks County Landfill as set forth in the Letter from the 
Bank to the Borrowers, acknowledged and accepted by the Borrowers on 
March 22, 1995, the Borrower has not breached and is not in violation of any 
environmental protection law, rule, or regulation.  Borrower will 
immediately give notice in writing to the Bank of any condition or event 
which constitutes or could constitute a material and substantial breach or 
violation of any environmental protection law, rule or regulation.  Borrower 
agrees to hold the Bank and its employees harmless from any loss, liability or 
expense arising from any such breach or violation.

Thank you very much for your continued banking business.  Please 
acknowledge your acceptance of the foregoing by signing, dating and

Sincerely,

$45,000,000.00                                         July 17, 1996
- --------------                                         -------    --
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, each of the undersigned, jointly and severally if 
more than one (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Borrower"), promises 
to pay to the order of CoreStates Bank, N.A.*, a national banking association 
(the "Bank"), at any of its banking offices in Pennsylvania, the principal 
amount of Forty-Five Million and 00/100 DOLLARS
       	  -------------------------------------
in lawful money of the United States, or, if less, the outstanding principal 
balance on all loans and advances made by Bank evidenced by this Note 
("Loans"), plus interest.  Said principal and interest shall be payable ON 
DEMAND

Interest shall accrue at a rate per annum which is at all times equal to
See attached Note Addendum of even date herewith 
- ------------------------------------------------
Bank's Prime Rate, such rate to change each time the Prime Rate changes, 
effective on and as of the date of the change.

INTEREST-Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and 
shall be charged for the actual number of days elapsed.  Accrued interest 
shall be payable monthly.  Accrued interest shall also be payable on demand 
and when the entire principal balance of this Note is paid to Bank.  The term 
"Prime Rate" is defined as the rate of interest for loans established by Bank 
from time to time as its prime rate.  Interest shall accrue on each 
disbursement hereunder from the date such disbursement is made by Bank, 
provided, however, that to the extent this Note represents a replacement, 
substitution, renewal or refinancing of existing indebtedness, interest shall 
accrue from the date hereof.  Interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance 
hereof at the rate provided for in this Note until the entire unpaid balance 
has been paid in full, notwithstanding the entry of any judgment against 
Borrower.

BANK'S LOAN RECORDS - The actual amount due and owing from time to 
time under this Note shall be evidenced by Bank's books and records of 
receipts and disbursements hereunder.  Bank shall set up and establish an 
account on the books of Bank in which will be recorded Loans evidenced 
hereby, payments on such Loans and other appropriate debits and credits as 
provided herein, including any Loans which represent reborrowings of 
amounts previously repaid.  Bank shall also record, in accordance with 
customary accounting practice, all other interest, charges, expenses and other 
items properly chargeable to Borrower hereunder, and other appropriate 
debits and credits.  Such books and records of Bank shall be presumed to be 
complete and accurate and shall be deemed correct, except to the extent 
shown by Borrower to be manifestly erroneous.

NOTE NOT A COMMITMENT TO LEND - Borrower acknowledges and 
agrees that no provision hereof, and no course of dealing by Bank in 
connection herewith, shall be deemed to create or shall imply the existence of 
any commitment or obligation on the part of Bank to make Loans.  Except as 
otherwise provided in a currently effective written agreement by Bank to 
make Loans, each Loan shall be made solely at Bank's discretion.

PREPAYMENT - Borrower may at its option prepay all or any portion of the 
principal balance of any Loans at any time without premium or penalty.

COLLATERAL - As security for all indebtedness to Bank now or hereafter 
incurred by Borrower, under this Note or otherwise, Borrower grants Bank a 
lien upon and security interest in any securities, instruments or other 
personal property of Borrower now or hereafter in Bank's possession and in any 
deposit balances now or hereafter held by Bank for Borrower's account and 
in all proceeds of any such personal property or deposit balances.  Such liens 
and security interests shall be independent of Bank's right of setoff.  This 
Note and the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall be additionally secured by 
any lien or security interest evidenced by writing (whether now existing or 
hereafter executed) which contains a provision to the effect that such lien or 
security interest is intended to secure (a) this Note or indebtedness evidenced 
hereby or (b) any category of liabilities, obligations or the indebtedness of 
Borrower to Bank which includes this Note or the indebtedness evidenced 
hereby, and all property subject to any such lien or security interest shall be 
collateral for this Note.

CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT - Borrower irrevocably authorizes and 
empowers any attorney or any clerk of any court of record to appear for and 
confess judgment against Borrower for such sums as are due and owing on 
this Note, with or without declaration, with costs of suit, without stay of 
execution and with an amount not to exceed the greater of fifteen percent 
(15%) of the principal amount of such judgment or $5,000 added for 
collection fees.  If a copy of this Note, verified by affidavit by or on behalf 
of Bank, shall have been filed in such action, it shall not be necessary to 
file the original of this Note.  The authority granted hereby shall not be 
exhausted by the initial exercise thereof and may be exercised by Bank from 
time to time.  There shall be excluded from the lien of any judgment obtained 
solely pursuant to this paragraph all improved real estate in any area 
identified under regulations promulgated under the Flood Disaster Protection 
Act of 1973, as having special flood hazards if the community in which such 
area is located is participating in the National Flood Insurance Program.  
Any such exclusion shall not affect any lien upon property not so excluded.

DEMAND NOTE - This Note is and shall be construed as a "demand 
instrument" under the Uniform Commercial Code.  Bank may demand 
payment of the indebtedness outstanding under this Note or any portion 
thereof at any time.

BANK'S REMEDIES - In the event that any payment hereunder is not made 
when due or demanded, Bank may, immediately or any time thereafter, 
exercise any or all of its rights hereunder or under any agreement or 
otherwise under applicable law against Borrower, against any person liable, 
either absolutely or contingently, for payment of any indebtedness evidenced 
hereby, and in any collateral and such rights may be exercised in any order 
and shall not be prejudiced by any delay in Bank's exercise thereof.  At any 
time after such non-payment.  Bank may, at its option and upon five days 
written notice to Borrower, begin accruing interest on this Note at a rate not 
to exceed five percent (5%) per annum in excess of the rate of interest 
provided for above on the unpaid principal balance hereof: provided, 
however, that no such interest shall accrue hereunder in excess of the 
maximum rate permitted by law.  All such additional interest shall be payable 
upon demand.

NOTICE TO BORROWER - Any notice required to be given by Bank under 
the provisions of this Note shall be effective as to each Borrower when 
addressed to Borrower and deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, for 
delivery by first class mail at Borrower's mailing address as it appears on 
Bank's records.

DISBURSEMENTS AND PAYMENTS - The proceeds of any Loan may be 
credited by Bank to the deposit account of Borrower or disbursed in any 
other manner requested by Borrower and approved by Bank.  All payments 
due under this Note are to be made in immediately available funds.  If Bank 
accepts payment in any other form, such payment shall not be deemed to 
have been made until the funds comprising such payment have actually been 
received by or made available to Bank.  If Borrower is not an individual, 
Borrower authorizes Bank (but Bank shall have no obligation)

The Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance of this 
Note at a floating annual rate equal to the Bank's Prime rate or at such 
overnight rate or rates as the Bank quotes and the Borrower accepts from 
time to time.

The Borrower shall have the option of choosing a fixed rate of interest from 
time to time, as quoted by the Bank, which will apply for periods from 7 to 
180 days, in 7 or 30 day increments, for any portion of the unpaid principal 
balance of this Note, so long as such portion exceeds $1,000,000.00, on the 
following basis:

A.      For seven (7) day increments up to twenty-eight (28) days: as quoted 
	based on the Bank's Matched Funding Rate;

B.      For thirty (30) day increments up to one hundred eighty (180) days: 
	as quoted based on the lower of Adjusted LIBOR or Adjusted CD 
	Rates; or

C.      Any other pricing options that are available or may become available 
	to the Bank, and may be quoted by the Bank to the Borrower at the 
	Bank's option.

Any outstanding principal balance for which a fixed rate of interest option is 
in effect will be subject to the "Prepayment Provisions" as outlined below:

PREPAYMENT PROVISIONS:
- ----------------------
If this Note bears interest at a floating or variable rate and no floor or 
minimum rate is specified, Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the 
principal balance of this Note at any time, without premium or penalty.  If 
not permitted under the preceding sentence, any prepayment of principal 
(including any principal repayment as a result of acceleration by Bank of this 
Note) shall require immediate payment to Bank of a prepayment fee equal to 
the amount, if any, by which the aggregate present value of scheduled 
principal and interest payments eliminated by the prepayment exceeds the 
principal amount being prepaid.  Said present value shall be calculated by 
application of a discount rate determined by Bank in its reasonable judgment 
to be the yield-to-maturity at the time of prepayment on U. S. Treasury 
securities having a maturity which most closely approximates the final 
maturity date of the principal balance then outstanding.  Whether or not a 
prepayment fee is required hereunder, prepayments shall be applied to

scheduled installments of principal in the inverse order of their maturity, 
shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount 
being prepaid and, unless this Note has been accelerated by Bank, shall not 
be permitted in an amount less than the scheduled principal installment 
immediately prior to final maturity of the outstanding principal balance.

		      EXPLANATION AND WAIVER OF RIGHTS
		      REGARDING CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT




1.      On the date hereof, Arrow Medical Products, Inc., Arrow 
International Export Corporation, Arrow International, Inc., a(an) 
corporations (the "Obligor") is signing and delivering to CoreStates Bank, 
N.A. (the "Bank") a

    X       Promissory note in the principal sum of Forty-Five Million-------
   ---
       	    Dollars ($45, 000, 000.00)

       	    Guaranty of Obligations of _________________________          
   ---
	           Other ______________________________________________    
   ---
(as the same may be renewed, modified, amended, extended, restated or 
replaced, whether one or more, the "Obligation").  The Obligor has been 
advised by the Bank (and by the Obligor's legal counsel, if applicable) that 
the Obligation contains a clause that provides that the Bank may confess 
judgment against the Obligor.  The Obligor has read the Obligation and 
clearly and specifically understands that by signing the Obligation which 
contains such confession of judgment clause:

	(a)     The Obligor is authorizing the Bank to enter a 
judgment against the Obligor and in favor of the Bank, which will give the 
Bank a lien upon any real estate which the Obligor may own in any county 
where the judgment is entered;

	(b)     The Obligor is giving up an important right to any 
notice or opportunity for a hearing before the entry of this judgment on the 
records of the Court;

	(c)     The Obligor is agreeing that the Bank may enter this 
judgment and understands that the Obligor will be unable to contest the 
validity of the judgment, should the Bank enter it, unless the Obligor 
successfully challenges entry of the judgment through a petition to open or 
strike the judgment, which will require the Obligor to retain counsel at the 
Obligor's expense;

	(d)     The Obligor may be giving up an important right to 
any notice or opportunity for a hearing before the Bank may request and use 
the power of the state government to deprive the Obligor of its property 
pursuant to the judgment by seizing or having the Sheriff or other official 
seize the Obligor's bank accounts, inventory, equipment, furnishings, or any 
other personal property that the Obligor may own, to satisfy the Obligation;

	(e)     The Obligor may be immediately deprived of the use of 
any property that is seized by the Bank pursuant to the judgment without 
notice or a hearing, and the procedural rules of Pennsylvania's court system 
do not guarantee that the Obligor will receive a prompt hearing after the 
Obligor's property is seized; and

	(f)     If the Obligation is the Bank's printed form of Master 
Demand Note, Commercial Promissory Note or Security Agreement, or a 
Master Note Agreement prepared by the Bank, the Obligor is agreeing that 
the Bank may enter judgment whether or not there is a default under the 
Obligation.

2.      The Obligor knows and understands that it is the confession of 
judgment clause in the Obligation which gives the Bank the rights described 
in subparagraphs (a) through (f) of paragraph 1 above.



3.      Fully and completely understanding the rights which are being 
given up if the Obligor signs the Obligation containing the confession of 
judgment, the Obligor nevertheless freely, knowingly and voluntarily waives 
said rights and chooses to sign the Obligation.

4.      The Obligor acknowledges that the proceeds of the Obligation 
are to be used for business purposes.

5.      If the Obligor is an individual, the Obligor certifies that 
his/her annual income exceeds $10,000.00.


Dated this 17th day of July, 1996
