Frequently asked questions
Does this catheter feature a special coating for comfort?
Yes, this catheter is treated with a hydrophilic polymer coating. Once hydrated, this coating becomes exceptionally slippery, which is designed to significantly smooth the insertion process and minimize tissue irritation for the patient.
Is this product safe for those with specific chemical sensitivities?
Yes, for patient safety, this McKesson Foley Catheter is manufactured to be DEHP-free and BPA-free.
What is the material composition of this catheter?
It is constructed from natural rubber latex and enhanced with a hydrophilic polymer coating. Please note that because it contains natural rubber latex, it may cause allergic reactions in some individuals.
Is this catheter suitable for long-term drainage?
This is a sterile, single-use medical device intended for professional urological care. It is designed to work with standard universal drainage collection bags for effective clinical or home-care urine management.
Does the design support efficient urine flow?
Yes, the tip features large, oval eyes with smooth, symmetrical bevels. This design is engineered to maximize fluid flow while simultaneously protecting delicate surrounding tissues during drainage.
What do I need to inflate the balloon?
To properly inflate the 5 cc balloon, you will need to use sterile water via the external valve located on the inflation lumen.
How does the balloon ensure a secure fit?
The catheter includes a symmetrical 5 cc balloon. When inflated with sterile water, it creates a reliable, balanced seal at the bladder neck, which is specifically designed to prevent accidental dislodgement.
How can I easily identify the size of this catheter?
This model is color-coded in purple, which is the universal standard for identifying a 22 Fr. size, making it easy for clinicians to quickly select the correct size.
Is this catheter a 2-way or 3-way style?
This is a 2-way Foley catheter, which includes one lumen dedicated to urine drainage and a second lumen specifically for balloon inflation.
How is the catheter packaged?
The catheter is individually wrapped in sterile packaging to ensure it remains clean and protected until the moment of use.
