LoFric Classic Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter - Male - 16" - 16 Fr. - Box of 30

Lofric Classic Hydrophilic Catheter - Male 16"

As part of the Astra-Tech line of intermittent catheters, the Lofric Classic Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter is the most common model. Comfortable and very simple to use, just open the package, fill it with water and wait 30 seconds, and then it's ready to use! The stiffness of the catheter has been carefully designed to facilitate insertion yet rule out the risk of it bending in narrow passages, or perforating or damaging the urethra.

Intended Use: Hydrophilic single-use catheter for home or healthcare use intermittent catheterization / Bladder emptying

Material Composition:The new LoFric catheter material is a so called polyolefin-based elastomer (=POBE) that is naturally free from PVC, softeners and latex. The new POBE material has been thoroughly evaluated with excellent results in terms of environmental impact and user appreciation. The catheter is still coated with Urotonic™ Surface Technology to minimize friction both at insertion and withdrawal, because comfort and safety are always our number one priority.

Sterilization & Shelf Life: All catheters are sterilized by ethylene oxide gas. Information about the recommended best-before date is printed on the package.

• 1. Peel open the top of the package about 2 inches.
• 2. Fill the package with water until the water reaches about an inch below the funnel end.
• 3. Remove the vlue patch at the top of the package and attach the pack to a dry surface.
• 4. Allow the catheter to soak for at least 30 seconds, then catheterize.

Lofric Classic Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter is designed for one-time use only. After a single use, the hydrophilic coating is not assured to retain its water layer inside the urethra. This may cause injury to the urethra and/or increase the risk of infection.
