Frequently asked questions
Does this catheter support a touchless insertion technique?
Yes. It features an integrated handling sheath that allows you to grip and insert the catheter without direct skin contact, promoting a more hygienic experience.
Is the hydrophilic coating easy to activate?
Yes, it is very straightforward. Each package includes a 0.9% sterile saline solution packet specifically designed to rapidly activate the hydrophilic coating, making it ready for use almost immediately.
Is this catheter designed specifically for men?
Yes, this product is designed for adult male use and features a coude tip, which is often recommended to help navigate the male urethra more effectively.
How comfortable is this catheter during insertion?
Comfort is a priority with this design. It utilizes soft eye technology and a gentle tapered tip to minimize mucosal trauma and friction during insertion, especially when activated with the included saline solution.
What is the purpose of the coude tip?
The coude tip is slightly curved, which helps in maneuvering the catheter through the bends and curves of the male urethra, making insertion smoother compared to a standard straight tip.
Can I reuse this catheter?
No, this catheter is strictly for single-use only. It must be disposed of after each use to ensure safety and maintain sterility.
Does this catheter come pre-lubricated?
It features a hydrophilic coating rather than a traditional grease-based lubricant. Once activated by the included saline packet, the coating becomes extremely slippery, providing a clean, friction-reduced experience.
Are there any specific safety warnings I should be aware of?
Yes, the product packaging includes a WARNING regarding Cancer and Reproductive Harm. Please handle the product as instructed and consult your healthcare provider if you have concerns regarding materials or medical device safety.
How can I easily identify this size?
The catheter features a color-coded funnel at the end. This allows for quick and accurate size verification, ensuring you have the correct 14 Fr. size every time.
What is the total length of this catheter?
This catheter measures 16 inches in length, which is the standard size typically used for adult male catheterization.
