Description

  • McKesson Intermittent Catheter with Hydrophilic Coating
  • High-quality intermittent catheters designed for quick and easy self-catheterization
  • Manufactured from clear polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polyvinyl-pyrrolidone (PVP)
  • Indicated for intermittent catheterization of the urethra for those individuals who are unable to promote a natural urine flow or for those individuals who have a significant volume of residual urine following a natural bladder-voiding episode
  • Designed to be inserted into the urethra to reach the bladder allowing urine to drain
  • Pre-lubricated coating made of PVP and NaCL absorbs and binds water to the hydrophilic catheter, resulting in a thick, smooth and slippery surface for comfort and ease of use without requiring additional lubricant
  • Included sterile water packet conveniently bursts by folding inside unopen catheter pack to activate the hydrophilic coating in just 30 seconds with no mess and maintained sterility
  • Staggered eyes for maximum urine flow
  • Polished eyes minimize urethral trauma and reduce the risk of bringing bacteria into the bladder
  • Standard coudé features tapered tip designed with a short, strong curve; ideal for navigating through tight strictures
  • Features raised ridge on funnel and blue guide stripe printed on catheter shaft to help accurately orient the catheter ensuring the curved tip is pointing upwards
  • Especially ideal for male patients with an enlarged prostate, or females who have developed obstructions; curved tip allows catheter to pass that tight spot with ease
  • Flexible funnel end with ridged design for grip and ease of handling
  • Color-coded funnel and packaging label for easy identification of french size
  • Packaging design includes loop cutout for hanging to maintain sterility
  • Enhanced packaging design features adhesive for convenient use in any environment allowing user to hang the catheter pack on a wall, mirror, stall door, or other available surface to maintain sterility during activation, personal cleansing, and application

Is the catheter made with latex?

No, it is not made with natural rubber latex. Additionally, it is free from DEHP, DINP, and BPA, making it a suitable choice for users with those specific sensitivities.

The catheter includes a blue guide stripe and a raised funnel ridge, which help you maintain accurate orientation of the curved tip during the insertion process.

Is the catheter safe to use at home?

Are there any specific allergy warnings to be aware of?

While the device is latex-free, it does contain polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). Please use caution if you have a known history of allergic reactions to this material.

Can I use this for both men and women?

This specific catheter is designed for male usage, primarily due to the coudé tip configuration which is meant to navigate the male anatomy.

Will the eyelets cause discomfort during insertion?

The catheter features polished, staggered eyelets that are designed to minimize trauma to sensitive tissue and reduce the risk of irritation or bacterial contamination.

How quickly is the catheter ready to use?
