Frequently asked questions
Is the material safe and DEHP-free?
Yes, the TruCath catheter is constructed from high-quality PVC that is specifically formulated to be DEHP-free, prioritizing patient safety and long-term well-being.
How do I activate the hydrophilic coating?
Activation is simple and quick using the included integrated water packet. By popping the packet within the packaging, the hydrophilic layer is hydrated, creating a slippery surface that significantly reduces friction during insertion.
Does the Coude tip help with navigation?
Absolutely. The Coude tip is specifically engineered with a slight curve to assist in navigating the male urethra, making the catheterization process smoother and easier compared to straight-tip catheters.
Can I use this without touching the tube?
Yes, the product includes a touch-free sleeve. This feature allows you to handle and insert the catheter without direct contact, which helps maintain sterility and reduces the risk of contamination.
Are the drainage eyelets designed for comfort?
The catheter features two opposing, polished eyelets. These are precision-finished to ensure they are smooth, preventing irritation during insertion and ensuring efficient drainage.
Is this size suitable for adults?
Yes, this specific model is a 14 Fr. size with a 16-inch length, which is a standard configuration designed specifically for adult male intermittent catheterization.
