Frequently Asked Questions
What is a closed-system intermittent catheter?
▾
A closed-system catheter includes a sterile collection bag and guide sheath, minimizing contact during insertion. This reduces contamination risk and is ideal for users seeking a hygienic, all-in-one cathing solution, especially in non-clinical environments.

▾
No, the catheter is pre-lubricated, eliminating the need for external lubricants. This enhances convenience and maintains sterility, making it easier to use in public or while traveling without extra supplies.
How does the guide strip work on the Self-Cath?
▾
