Frequently asked questions
Does the hydrophilic coating reduce discomfort?
Yes, the LoFric catheter uses advanced hydrophilic technology that activates with water to create a slippery, low-friction surface. This design significantly minimizes friction during both insertion and withdrawal, which helps protect sensitive urethral mucosa and reduces the risk of irritation.
Is this product safe for latex-sensitive users?
Absolutely. The catheter is constructed from Polyolefin-based Elastomer (POBE), making it entirely free of natural rubber latex. It is a safe and reliable option for individuals with latex sensitivities or allergies.
How do the eyelets help with drainage?
The catheter is equipped with two smooth, staggered eyelets. This specific design serves two main purposes: 1. It ensures efficient and consistent urine flow. 2. It helps minimize the risk of blockages during use.
How do I activate the hydrophilic surface?
The hydrophilic coating is designed to be activated using water. Please note that water packets are not included with the catheters, so you will need to use clean, sterile water to activate the coating before insertion.
Is the material flexible for easier use?
Yes, the POBE material provides the ideal balance of flexibility and firmness. This allows for a comfortable experience while ensuring the catheter remains rigid enough to simplify the insertion process for the user.
Are these catheters sterile for single use?
Yes, every LoFric catheter is provided sterile and is intended for single-use (disposable) only. This ensures maximum hygiene and safety for every catheterization session.
What is the total count included in a case?
Each purchase provides a substantial supply to support your routine:
- 30 catheters per box
- 4 boxes per case
- 120 catheters total per case
Is this catheter designed specifically for adult men?
Yes, this specific model (16 inches in length, 10 Fr. size) is engineered specifically for adult male anatomy, providing the appropriate length and stiffness for straightforward navigation.
Does the design prevent potential blockage?
Beyond the high-quality POBE body, the staggered eyelet configuration is purpose-built to maintain a clear drainage path, significantly reducing the likelihood of the catheter becoming obstructed during use.
Is the funnel end easy to handle?
The catheter terminates in a distinct funnel-shaped connector. This design feature is intentional, providing a secure and ergonomic grip that allows for easy, controlled handling and attachment during the catheterization process.
