Is the activation process simple?
Yes, it is very straightforward. Simply soak the catheter in water for 30 seconds to activate the coating, and it will be ready for use.
Are the drainage eyelets designed for efficiency?
Absolutely. The catheter features two staggered eyelets positioned at the distal end. This configuration is designed to promote reliable and effective urine flow.

Does this size meet standard clinical requirements?

Is this product sterile for single use?
Yes, each catheter is supplied sterile and is intended for single-patient, disposable use only. This ensures the highest standards of hygiene for every catheterization.
Is the size easy to identify visually?
