Frequently asked questions

What are the benefits of the hydrophilic coating?

The hydrophilic coating creates a highly lubricious surface when activated by moisture. This significantly reduces friction during insertion, which enhances patient comfort and minimizes the risk of tissue trauma.

Why is a Coudé tip design used?

The firm Coudé tip is specifically shaped to help navigate the urethra. It is ideal for patients who may require a stiffer, curved tip to assist with easier and more precise passage during insertion.

Is this catheter safe for patients with sensitivities?

This catheter is manufactured to be DEHP-free and BPA-free to prioritize patient safety. However, please note that it contains natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.

Are the drainage eyes designed to prevent blockages?

Yes, the catheter features large, oval eyes with a smooth, symmetrical bevel. This design is engineered to maximize urine flow rates while simultaneously protecting delicate tissue from irritation.

What equipment is needed for use?

For proper setup, this catheter is intended for use with:

  • Standard sterile drainage bags
  • Sterile water for inflating the balloon
How does the balloon ensure secure placement?

The integrated 5 cc balloon is designed to provide a reliable, symmetrical seal at the neck of the bladder once inflated with sterile water, preventing accidental displacement.

What is the French size of this catheter?

This specific model is a 20 Fr. catheter, which is easily identified by its yellow color coding.

Is this suitable for long-term use?

Yes, it is designed for clinical urological applications and manufactured with materials prioritizing safety for both short-term and long-term use, provided it is handled in a sterile manner.

Is the catheter sterile upon arrival?

Yes, the product is sterile and individually wrapped. Do not use the device if the individual packaging has been compromised or opened prior to use.

What does the 2-Way construction mean?

The 2-way design consists of a dual-lumen construction:

  • One lumen is dedicated to efficient urine drainage.
  • The second lumen connects to an external valve for controlled inflation of the 5 cc balloon.
