Key Features
Atraumatic Soft Tip
Minimizes urethral irritation during insertion.
Symmetrical Drainage Eyes
Evenly spaced openings ensure consistent, efficient urine flow.
Symmetrical Expansion Balloon
Inflates uniformly in all directions for secure bladder retention.
Full-Length X-ray Opaque Line
Embedded radiopaque material enables full catheter visualization via X-ray.
Color-Coded Connector
Color-coded sizing markers for fast, error-free size identification.
Optional Anti-Reflux Valve
Prevents urine backflow to reduce infection risk.
Optional Hydrophilic Coating
Enhances surface lubricity for smoother insertion and long-term comfort.
Dual Radiopaque Markers
Additional markers support precise placement verification in radiographic imaging.
Anti-Encrustation Surface
Smooth, specialized surface minimizes mineral buildup (encrustation) to reduce blockage.
Clinical Advantages
Superior Biocompatibility
100% medical-grade silicone reduces urethral irritation, allergic reactions, and tissue trauma—critical for long-term catheter use.
Precise Placement Assurance
Full-length X-ray line + dual radiopaque markers eliminate placement guesswork; ideal for post-surgical or critical care patients requiring radiographic verification.
Reduced Complication Risk
Anti-encrustation surface lowers catheter blockage and urinary tract infection (UTI) risk; optional anti-reflux valve prevents retrograde urine flow.
Enhanced Patient Comfort
Soft tip, symmetrical balloon expansion, and optional hydrophilic coating minimize discomfort during insertion and extended wear.
Streamlined Workflows
Color-coded connectors enable quick size identification, cutting caregiver preparation time.
Secure Retention
Symmetrically expanding balloon ensures reliable placement, reducing accidental dislodgement.
Applications
Inpatient Urinary Drainage: Short- or long-term bladder management for hospitalized patients (e.g., post-surgical recovery, mobility-impaired individuals).
Post-Operative Care: Bladder decompression for patients after urological, gynecological, or abdominal surgeries (with X-ray placement verification).
Critical Care Settings: Urinary monitoring and drainage for ICU patients, where precise catheter positioning is vital.
Chronic Urinary Management: Long-term care for patients with neurogenic bladder or persistent urinary retention (supported by silicone’s biocompatibility).
