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
CAUTION: THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS POLYVINYLPYRROLIDONE WHICH MAY CAUSE ALLERGIC REACTIONS
Individually packaged for single, sterile use
Not made with DEHP, DINP, BPA, or natural rubber latex
Packaged: 30 Each Per Box, 10 Boxes Per Case

Frequently asked questions

Does the hydrophilic coating provide enough lubrication?

Yes. The catheter features a high-quality PVP hydrophilic coating that absorbs water to create a thick, low-friction surface. This ensures a smooth insertion and withdrawal process without the need for additional lubricants.

How quickly can the catheter be prepared for use?

The catheter is designed for speed and convenience. It includes an integrated sterile water packet that activates the hydrophilic coating in just 30 seconds.

Is the coudé tip easy to orient correctly?

Yes, it is designed for precision. The catheter features a blue guide stripe running along the shaft, which helps you verify that the curved tip is properly oriented upwards during insertion.

Is this catheter safe for those with latex allergies?

Yes. This product is not made with natural rubber latex. Additionally, it is manufactured without DEHP, DINP, or BPA to prioritize user safety.

How does the design help reduce insertion trauma?

To enhance comfort and safety, the catheter is engineered with polished, staggered eyelets. These rounded, smooth openings are designed to minimize trauma to the urethral lining during insertion.

Can I easily hang the packaging for a cleaner experience?

Absolutely. The packaging is thoughtfully designed with a built-in loop cutout and adhesive feature, allowing you to securely hang the unit for a hygienic, hands-free preparation process.

Does the catheter provide a secure grip during use?

Yes, the base of the catheter features a flexible, ridged funnel. This design ensures you maintain a firm and reliable grip during handling and application.

Is this specific tip style recommended for prostate issues?

The coudé tip is specifically recommended for male patients. Its tapered, curved end provides superior maneuverability, making it ideal for navigating urethral strictures or bypasses caused by an enlarged prostate.

Is there anything I should be aware of regarding material sensitivities?

While the product is latex-free, please note that it contains polyvinyl-pyrrolidone (PVP), which may cause allergic reactions in some individuals.

Is this product suitable for clinical or home use?

Yes. This sterile, single-use catheter is versatile enough for both home and clinical environments, particularly where maintaining a strict sterile field during self-catheterization is essential.
