What is MMEC103-Each Easy Cath Coude Intermittent Catheter 10 Fr 11?
The MMEC103-Each Easy Cath Coude Intermittent Catheter 10 Fr 11 is a single-use, sterile urinary catheter designed for intermittent self-catheterization. Measuring 10 French in size and 11 inches in length, it features a specialized Coude tip—a slightly curved, olive-shaped end—that helps navigate past obstructions such as urethral strictures or an enlarged prostate.

Who is MMEC103-Each Easy Cath Coude Intermittent Catheter 10 Fr 11 for?
This catheter is ideal for individuals managing neurogenic bladder, urinary retention, or post-surgical recovery, especially males with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or urethral strictures. It supports users performing clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) at home or on the go. Healthcare providers often recommend Coude-tip catheters when standard straight catheters fail to pass due to anatomical challenges.
How does MMEC103-Each Easy Cath Coude Intermittent Catheter 10 Fr 11 compare?
Compared to standard polypropylene straight catheters, the Coude tip offers superior navigation through obstructed urethras. While hydrophilic catheters provide easier insertion with pre-lubrication, this PVC-based option is more affordable. It lacks coating technology but maintains reliability for users who prefer manual lubrication. Among latex-free intermittent catheters, it delivers a cost-effective solution for routine use without sacrificing sterility or structural integrity.
Best use cases
