Frequently asked questions

Does the hydrophilic coating help with insertion?

Yes. The hydrophilic polymer coating creates a lubricious surface specifically designed to reduce friction. This feature facilitates smoother insertion and significantly improves patient comfort during the procedure.

Is this safe for patients with latex allergies?

No, this device contains natural rubber latex. It is essential to screen the patient for latex allergies before selecting or using this catheter.

Is this catheter BPA and DEHP free?

Yes, the construction of this catheter is both BPA-free and DEHP-free, prioritizing patient safety and minimizing exposure to those specific plasticizers.

Does the tip design affect drainage efficiency?

Yes. The catheter is engineered with large, oval eyes featuring smooth, symmetrical bevels. This design is specifically chosen to maximize drainage efficiency while minimizing the risk of tissue damage.

Is this intended for single or multiple uses?

This device is designed strictly for single-use, sterile applications. It arrives individually wrapped to maintain sterility and must be disposed of after use.

How does the balloon ensure secure placement?

The catheter features a symmetrical 5 cc balloon that, when inflated with sterile water, creates a reliable seal at the urethral neck. This design prevents the device from accidental displacement while in use.

What is the benefit of the dual-lumen design?

The dual-lumen design provides two distinct channels for efficiency:

  • Drainage lumen: An open-ended channel for effective and continuous urine flow.
  • Inflation lumen: Connects to an external valve to allow for controlled and secure balloon inflation.
How do I identify the size of this catheter?

This specific unit is color-coded in orange, which serves as the universal visual indicator for the 16 Fr. size, allowing for quick and accurate identification in a clinical setting.

What additional supplies are needed for use?

To properly use this catheter, you will typically need:

  • A compatible urine collection bag.
  • Sterile water for inflating the 5 cc retention balloon.
Is this suitable for professional home-care?

Yes, this catheter is suitable for both clinical and professional home-care urological applications where a standard 16 Fr. catheter is required.
