Frequently Asked Questions
What is a hydrophilic coated catheter?
▾
A hydrophilic coated catheter has a special surface that becomes extremely slippery when hydrated, usually with sterile water. This reduces friction during insertion, making it gentler on the urethra, especially for children or sensitive users. The CQHP8-Box includes its own water sachet for instant activation.
Does the CQHP8-Box require additional lubrication?
▾
No, the CQHP8-Box does not need extra lubrication. The hydrophilic coating activates with the built-in sterile water sachet, providing consistent, ready-to-use lubrication without mess or additional steps, reducing contamination risk and simplifying the process for caregivers and children.
How do you use the Cure Medical pediatric hydrophilic catheter?
▾
To use, simply break the internal sterile water sachet, wait a few seconds for the coating to activate, then insert gently. The textured gripper ensures control, and the polished eyelets help prevent tissue damage. It's designed for quick, hygienic, one-step use at home or on the go.
Is the CQHP8-Box latex-free?
▾
Yes, the CQHP8-Box is completely free of natural rubber latex, DEHP, and BPA. This makes it a safer option for children with allergies or sensitivities to these materials, reducing the risk of irritation or long-term health concerns associated with phthalates and latex exposure.
