Description

The SILICONE ELASTOMER COATED LATEX FOLEY CATHETER, 5 CC, 2-WAY, 16 FR (5.3 MM) is a sterile, single-use urinary catheter designed for reliable and safe bladder drainage in adult patients. Constructed from latex coated with silicone elastomer, the catheter combines the flexibility and durability of latex with the biocompatibility and smooth surface of silicone, reducing irritation to the urethral mucosa and enhancing patient comfort during insertion and indwelling use.

This 16 French (5.3 mm) catheter features a 16-inch length and a 5 cc balloon, which provides secure anchorage within the bladder to prevent inadvertent dislodgement. The standard tip design ensures smooth, atraumatic insertion, while the 2-way configuration allows simultaneous urine drainage and balloon inflation through a separate lumen, supporting efficient and controlled management of urinary output.

The catheter is sterile and intended for single-patient use, minimizing the risk of infection and maintaining strict adherence to infection control protocols. Its silicone elastomer coating improves lubricity, facilitating easier insertion and reducing friction against the urethra. The catheter is compatible with standard Foley catheter collection systems, ensuring secure and reliable connection for continuous drainage.
