Frequently asked questions

Does the TouchFree design help reduce contamination?

Yes. The TouchFree technology is specifically engineered to provide a hygienic, no-touch insertion process, which significantly lowers the risk of contamination during use, promoting better health outcomes.

Is the catheter ready to use immediately?

Yes. The catheter comes with a pre-hydrated hydrophilic coating, meaning it is ready for immediate use. You do not need to perform any manual preparation or add external lubricants.

Why is the Coude tip preferred for males?

The Coude tip is specifically angled to help navigate the male anatomy more effectively. It is designed to bypass potential obstructions or strictures in the urethra, offering improved comfort and ease of insertion compared to standard straight tips.

Are the drainage eyelets designed for comfort?

Absolutely. The catheter features two smooth, staggered eyelets. This design ensures effective and efficient drainage while maintaining maximum comfort during both insertion and withdrawal.

Is this catheter suitable for single-use?

Yes, this is a sterile, single-use intermittent catheter. It is designed to be disposed of after one application to ensure the highest standards of hygiene and patient safety.

How does the packaging assist with hygiene?

The packaging includes a protective sleeve and a finger-loop tab. These features allow for easy handling and maneuverability without the need to directly touch the surface of the catheter.

What material is the catheter tube made of?

The catheter is constructed from high-quality, medical-grade PVC. This material is paired with a hydrophilic coating to create a low-friction surface, ensuring a smooth experience.

Is the catheter appropriate for use in home settings?

Yes, it is perfectly suited for daily intermittent catheterization in both home and clinical environments. It is ideal for users who prioritize sterility and require an independent, touch-free application.

What is the total quantity included in a box?

Each purchase provides a box containing 30 individual, sterile VaPro TouchFree catheters, ensuring a consistent supply for your routine needs.

Are there specific steps to activate the coating?

No activation is required. Because the hydrophilic coating is ready-to-use, it is already pre-hydrated inside the packaging, saving you time and simplifying the catheterization process.
