Frequently asked questions

Why is the Coude Olive tip beneficial?

The Coude Olive tip features a slightly curved, rounded end specifically engineered to help navigate difficult anatomical pathways and bypass obstructions in the male urethra, providing better directional control than standard straight tips.

How does this prevent trauma during insertion?

This catheter is designed with fire-polished eyelets. These eyelets are smoothed and seamlessly integrated into the tube surface, which minimizes friction and irritation to sensitive tissues during both insertion and withdrawal.

How do I know the orientation of the curve?

The catheter includes an integrated guide strip that runs along the length of the tube. This strip serves as a visual cue, allowing you to accurately track the orientation of the curved tip during the procedure.

Can I reuse this catheter?

No, this device is strictly intended for single-use, sterile applications. It should be disposed of properly after each use to maintain hygiene and prevent infections.

Is this size standard for adult males?

The 12 Fr. size is a common diameter for adult male catheterization. Please ensure this size aligns with the specific recommendations provided by your healthcare provider.

Is this suitable for a first-time user?

Yes, it is designed for adult male use. However, because it is a specialized Coude tip catheter, it is often recommended for those who have been specifically advised by a healthcare professional that a curved tip is necessary for their anatomy.

Is the material rigid or flexible?

It is constructed from high-quality, medical-grade uncoated PVC. This material is carefully selected to offer an optimal balance between flexibility, for patient comfort, and the necessary rigidity required for easier handling and insertion.

Is this product FSA eligible?

Yes, this catheter is FSA eligible, allowing you to use your Flexible Spending Account funds for this purchase.

How long is the catheter?

This model has a 16-inch length, which is the standard length designed for male catheterization requirements.

Is it easy to see through the tube?

Yes, the catheter features a clear, transparent tube construction. This allows for internal visibility throughout the process.
