Description

Bard Medical Bard 2-Way Standard Specialty Foley Catheters - Tiemann. Coude-tipped catheters are used to negotiate the male urethra, particularly when a stricture is present. The Olive coude of this model features a slightly larger bulb at the tip to assist in negotiation of restrictions. Red latex offers additional stiffness that aids insertion and adds radiopacity. The 5cc balloon provides excellent seating in the bladder to minimize leakage and irritation to the trigone.

Frequently asked questions

Is this catheter designed for urethral strictures?

Yes, this Bard 2-Way Standard Specialty Foley Catheter is specifically designed for specialized techniques, indicated primarily for use in negotiating the male urethra when strictures or restrictions are present.

Key features that facilitate this specialized insertion include:

  • Tiemann (Coude) Tip: This design utilizes an Olive coude tip, which has a slightly enlarged bulb at the terminal end. This shape helps to guide the catheter past urethral obstructions more easily.
  • Stiff, Radiopaque Material: The catheter is constructed from red latex, providing superior stiffness to aid in the insertion process. The material is also radiopaque, allowing for visibility during medical imaging procedures.
  • Secure Bladder Seating: Each catheter includes a standard 5cc balloon. This size is engineered to ensure excellent seating within the bladder, which minimizes leakage and helps to prevent irritation to the bladder trigone.
Does this specialty catheter feature a secure 5cc balloon?

Yes, this specialty Tiemann Foley catheter is equipped with a 5cc retention balloon.

This balloon is engineered to ensure optimal seating within the bladder, which provides several key advantages:

  • Minimizing Leakage: Secure placement helps reduce the chance of unintended urine bypass.
  • Reducing Irritation: Excellent seating helps mitigate potential irritation to the sensitive trigone area of the bladder.
Are these catheters factory new?

Yes, these Bard Medical Bard 2-Way Standard Specialty Foley Catheters are factory new.

How many catheters are included per case?

These Bard 2-Way Standard Specialty Foley Catheters are packaged and sold in cases containing 12 units (12/cs).

Is the catheter radiopaque?

Yes, this specialty catheter is designed to be radiopaque. This crucial feature is provided by its construction from red latex, ensuring high visibility during medical imaging for precise placement and monitoring.

Does the Tiemann tip ease stricture navigation?

Yes, these specialty Foley catheters are designed specifically to ease navigation past restrictions in the male urethra.

The Tiemann (Coude) tip configuration includes a special Olive coude detail with a slightly enlarged bulb. This design helps the catheter successfully negotiate strictures and obstructions.

Additional features supporting difficult insertions include:

  • Red Latex Material: Provides superior stiffness, which is crucial for controlled insertion, and offers radiopacity for better visibility.
  • 5cc Balloon: Ensures excellent, secure seating within the bladder to minimize leakage and prevent irritation to the bladder trigone area.
How effective is the Tiemann tip for strictures?

The Tiemann (Coude) tip is highly effective and specifically indicated for use in negotiating the male urethra, especially when strictures or anatomical restrictions are present.

Its specialized design provides several benefits to aid in challenging insertions:

  • Olive Coude Tip: This tip incorporates a slightly enlarged bulb at the terminal end, which is engineered to gently facilitate passage through obstructions.
  • Material Stiffness: Constructed from red latex, which provides superior stiffness to aid the insertion process.
  • Radiopacity: The red latex material also ensures the catheter is radiopaque, allowing for visibility during imaging procedures.
  • Secure Seating: Each catheter includes a 5cc retention balloon designed for excellent bladder seating, which minimizes leakage and helps prevent irritation to the bladder trigone area.
What French (FR) sizes are available?

These Bard Specialty Foley Catheters are offered in a wide range of French (FR) sizes, all featuring the specialized Tiemann (Coude) tip and a uniform 5cc retention balloon.

Available sizes include:

  • 12FR
  • 14FR
  • 16FR
  • 18FR
  • 20FR
  • 22FR
  • 24FR

All catheters are made from stiff, radiopaque red latex to assist with insertion past strictures, and they are supplied 12 units per case.

How does the Tiemann tip assist insertion?

The Tiemann (Coude) tip is a specialized configuration designed for successfully negotiating the male urethra, especially when strictures or anatomical restrictions are present. Its design assists insertion in several ways:

  • Negotiates Restrictions: The curved, angled Olive coude tip allows the catheter to be expertly maneuvered around obstructions that a straight tip cannot pass.
  • Facilitates Passage: The tip features a slightly enlarged bulb to help guide the catheter smoothly through restricted pathways.

Additionally, the catheter is constructed from red latex, which provides superior stiffness to aid control during the insertion process.

How does the Tiemann tip aid insertion?

The Bard Tiemann (Coude) tip is a specialized design engineered to maximize the successful negotiation of the male urethra, especially when obstructions or strictures are present. The tip works in conjunction with the catheter material to facilitate easier passage:

  • Olive Coude Tip: This is an angled tip that incorporates a slightly enlarged bulb (Olive coude) designed to assist in gently maneuvering past urethral restrictions.
  • Stiff Red Latex: The catheter is constructed from red latex, which provides crucial stiffness to ensure controlled and easier insertion.

Additionally, the red latex material is radiopaque for improved visibility during procedures, and the secure 5cc balloon ensures excellent seating in the bladder, minimizing leakage and reducing irritation.
