Intermittent catheter by Astra-Tech. LoFric Cath-Kit Coude Tip Male (16") is a catheter with a urine collection bag. It has a hydrophilic coating that is activated when immersed in water for 30 seconds. Reduces friction by 90-95% which provides easier insertion and less irritation. Latex-free, sterile. LoFric Cath-Kit enables patients to use a hygienic no-touch technique when catheterizing. It is a closed system, where the drainage bag is used to wet the catheter with clean water, and to collect and retain the urine. All the user needs is a source of clean water to wet the catheter.
UNIQUE: LoFric is the only catheter in the world with Urotonic Surface Technology. This method has been developed to make bladder emptying comfortable. The secret behind the Urotonic Surface Technology is a chemical process that makes the surface isotonic to urine. This means that the saline content on the catheter's surface is the same as in your urine. This saline content makes the water on the surface remain there during the entire catheterization process, making LoFric just as slippery coming out as it is going in.
This catheter comes in the following French sizes which are identified by the associated product numbers:
