Frequently asked questions
Is the hydrophilic coating effective for easier insertion?
Yes. The advanced hydrophilic polymer coating is designed to become highly lubricious upon hydration. This significantly eases insertion and helps minimize potential tissue irritation or trauma during the process.
How does the Coudé tip design help with placement?
The Coudé tip features a firm, angled design specifically engineered to assist with easier navigation. This configuration is particularly beneficial in cases where standard straight-tip catheters may be more challenging to insert.
Are the drainage eyes designed to prevent irritation?
Absolutely. The catheter features large, symmetrically placed oval eyes that have been finished with smooth, beveled edges. This design maximizes urine flow while prioritizing patient safety by minimizing tissue damage.
Is the balloon secure once placed?
Yes, the catheter includes a symmetrical 5 cc balloon. When inflated with sterile water, it provides a reliable and secure seal at the bladder neck to effectively prevent unwanted displacement.
Does this catheter contain any harmful chemicals?
Patient safety is a priority; this product is confirmed to be DEHP-free and BPA-free.
Should I be aware of any material allergies?
Yes. Please note that this product is constructed from natural latex. It is essential to ensure the patient does not have a latex allergy before use.
How is this product packaged for sterility?
Each catheter is supplied individually wrapped and is strictly for single, sterile use to maintain the highest clinical standards of hygiene.
What is the standard length of the catheter tube?
This catheter features a standard tube length of 16 inches, designed for efficient and comfortable drainage.
How can I easily identify the size of this catheter?
This 14 Fr. catheter is color-coded green, allowing for quick and accurate size identification in a clinical environment.
Is this a two-way design for drainage and inflation?
Yes. It features a two-way configuration with dual lumens: an open-ended channel for efficient urine drainage and an inflation channel equipped with an external valve for easy balloon management.
