The acronym CH stands for Charrière and measures the external diameter: a Charrière is a third of a millimetre, so a CH 12 is a catheter of 4 millimeters. It is the number that cannot be mistaken when reordering, because the size is decided by whoever set the treatment.

The word self-lubricating it is what distinguishes this family. The catheter is already immersed in physiological solution sterile at 0.9% inside its packaging: the hydrophilic coating in PVP it is active the moment it opens, and there is no waiting time. Other self-lubricating catheters require a few seconds for the lubricant to activate, and with a gesture that is repeated several times a day those seconds are felt.

The second element is the protective driving. It is a translucent membrane that covers the entire catheter and is welded to the grip and the connector: you grab it to slide the catheter, so it is never touched with your hands. Inside the package the two ends are screwed together, then the system is closed and the lubricant does not come out.

The body of the catheter is in polyurethane, the tip is flexible to accompany the passage into the sphincter and the holes are blunt and also lubricated inside, which is the reason why the catheter is delicate on the urethral mucosa. Does not contain latex, PVC nor phthalates, and the connector is universal, so it connects to a collection bag. The self-lubricating catheter it is useful in case of urinary retention and of daily intermittent catheterization.

The package is designed to be discreet, resealable and reusable as a container: after use the catheter is reinserted inside. Electron beam sterilization and validity of 2 years.
