CardinalHealth Dover™ Silicone Coude Tip plus Urine Meter Catheterization Kit PP18CSD

CardinalHealth Silicone Coude Tip plus Urine Meter Catheterization Kit

Healthcare professionals perform an urinary catheterization using a silicone coude tip. Professionals use the coude tip because of its curved or slightly bent tip. In some cases it provides easy navagation through the male urethra. Minimizing the discomfort when there is an obstruction or large prostate.

The catheter is silicone. Silicone, generally referred to as biocompatible. Which means it is less likely to create a sensitivity or an allergic reaction. Mainly ideal for patients that have a sensitivity to latex. The catheter is non-latex. The material is silicone.

Another important point is silicone is also very flexible, durable, and is excellent for long-term use. The kit includes a urine meter. It provides a precise measurement of urine output. This feature is important especially in critical care settings.

An insertion tray provides a sterile environment to organize the components to perform the procedure. Included to make the procedure comfortable is a sterile lubricant. The procedure is performed in a medical setting, especially for patients who require montioring their urine output by a medical professional.

Here are some extra benefits:

• Anti-Reflux device defends against urine reflex, while bag vent and top vent minimize pressure within the system
• Enclosed drain spout encases drain tube in hard plastic while minimizing clinician exposure to fluids
• Tamper-evident seal serves as indicator of closed system; securement device comes pre-attached to drive compliance
