Frequently asked questions
Does the coating help with insertion comfort?
Yes, this catheter features an advanced hydrophilic polymer coating. Once activated, this coating becomes highly lubricious, which significantly reduces friction during insertion and helps minimize patient tissue irritation.
Is the drainage design efficient?
The catheter is engineered with large, symmetrically placed, and beveled oval eyes. This specific design maximizes drainage efficiency and maintains high flow rates while minimizing the risk of clogging or tissue trauma.
Are the materials safe for patients?
The device is DEHP-free and BPA-free, ensuring it is free from these common chemical concerns. Please note, however, that it is constructed from natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
Is the tip designed for secure placement?
Yes, it features a firm standard tip that provides improved control during insertion. Combined with a 30cc retention balloon, it is specifically engineered for secure and reliable post-operative placement.
How do I identify the size quickly?
For efficiency in busy clinical environments, this 24 Fr. catheter is color-coded blue, allowing for quick and accurate visual identification of the size.
What is the primary function of the two lumens?
The 2-way design incorporates two specialized lumens: 1. Drainage Lumen: An open-ended channel for effective urine collection. 2. Inflation Lumen: Connects to an external valve to securely manage the 30cc retention balloon.
Is this product suitable for sterile procedures?
Absolutely. Each catheter is individually wrapped and sterilized to ensure it meets the rigorous safety requirements needed for post-operative and hospital care settings.
What supplies are needed for setup?
To use this catheter effectively, you will typically need: - A standard urine collection bag. - Sterile water (for balloon inflation). - Sterile lubricant, if required for clinical protocol.
Is this model reliable for post-operative care?
Yes, the McKesson 2-Way Foley Catheter is specifically designed for clinical reliability. Its construction focuses on maintaining long-term drainage efficiency and secure retention, making it a standard choice for post-operative urinary management.
What is the total length of the catheter?
This catheter measures 16 inches in length, providing a standard size suitable for professional clinical applications.
