SpeediCath Male Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter

SpeediCath Male Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter

Using a convenient hydrophilic coating, the SpeediCath Male Intermittent Catheter allows for straightforward, efficient use. Insertion and removal involve less friction, and during wear, this combination is less likely to cause trauma to the urethra.

Benefits

The SpeediCath Male Intermittent Catheter is a single-use solution that eliminates the need to clean your system between uses. Packaged in a saline solution, the catheter is sterile and ready for insertion:

• Less friction: There’s no need to lubricate or wet the catheter before insertion, thanks to the patented three-part hydrophilic coating. As well, polished eyelets reduce friction and allow for simpler everyday catheterization.
• Hydrophilic coating: This advanced solution, evenly distributed along the catheter’s length, allows for reliable insertion and removal. A base coating supports the top coating, which helps achieve the ideal level of water absorption and lessens friction. A saline solution keeps the catheter hydrated and ready for use.
• Easy to open: All the patient has to do is use the ring-pull to open the package.
• Intuitive: There’s no need to guess as you insert the SpeediCath. An uncoated Grip Zone further gives you greater control during this process.
• Stays in place: Each catheter includes an adhesive dot, which helps it remain in one place during the day.
• Reliable solution: Studies have shown that patients prefer the SpeediCath for its discreet feeling and quick, convenient insertion. It has remained the industry standard for the past 15 years.
• Free of Latex, PVC and Phthalates: Along with reducing irritation, using the SpeediCath Male Intermittent Catheter helps decrease your environmental impact.

How to Use SpeediCath Male Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter:

1. Wash Your Hands: Start by washing your hands thoroughly with soap and water to ensure cleanliness.
2. Prepare the Catheter: Remove the catheter from its sterile packaging. If it’s not pre-lubricated, activate the hydrophilic coating by releasing the water packet inside the packaging.
3. Clean the Area: Clean the head of your penis and pull back the foreskin if present. Use mild soap and water or an unscented wet wipe.
4. Lubricate: Hold the catheter and gently squeeze the lubricant along its length to ensure it’s well-coated.
5. Insert the Catheter: Gently insert the catheter into the urethra until urine starts to flow. Hold the catheter as close to the funnel as possible to minimize discomfort.
6. Drain the Bladder: Allow the urine to drain completely into the toilet or collection receptacle.
7. Remove the Catheter: Once the bladder is empty, slowly remove the catheter and discard it properly.
8. Clean Up: Wash your hands again after completing the procedure.
