Frequently Asked Questions
What is a coude tip catheter used for?
▾
A coude tip catheter has a curved tip designed to navigate past obstructions like an enlarged prostate or urethral stricture. It's commonly used in male patients with difficulty passing standard straight-tip catheters, offering improved passage and reduced trauma during insertion.
Does the hydrophilic coating require preparation?
▾
Yes, the hydrophilic coating must be activated with water before use. Simply add sterile or clean water to the package, wait a few seconds for the coating to become slippery, then insert. This eliminates the need for additional lubricants and ensures consistent smoothness.
How does the guide strip help during use?
▾
The guide strip provides a tactile reference to help align and control the catheter during insertion. It enhances accuracy, reduces fumbling, and supports users with limited dexterity or vision, making self-catheterization easier and more confident.
Is the 764810-Box Coloplast catheter latex-free?
▾
Yes, this catheter is made from latex-free materials, making it safe for individuals with latex allergies or sensitivities. It helps reduce the risk of allergic reactions and is suitable for long-term or frequent use in sensitive patients.
Can I reuse this intermittent catheter?
▾
No, the 764810-Box Coloplast Self-CathPlus is designed for single-use only. Reusing it increases the risk of infection, coating degradation, and urethral damage. Always use a new, sterile catheter for each session to maintain safety and effectiveness.
