Description
The Romsons Foley Trac 2 Way Foley Catheter is a flexible, silicone-elastomer coated latex tube designed for urinary drainage. It is an indwelling catheter intended for short or long-term use to assist individuals who have difficulty urinating on their own, such as those with urinary retention or incontinence. The two-way design features separate channels for draining urine and for inflating a balloon that holds the catheter in place within the bladder.
Silicone Elastomer Coating: The catheter is made of latex bonded with a silicone elastomer, which provides a soft feel and may reduce the risk of encrustation. Smooth Tip and Eyelets: It features a sturdy, coned, soft closed tip and large, laterally placed drainage eyelets to facilitate non-traumatic insertion and unobstructed drainage. Symmetrical Balloon: A high-capacity, symmetrical balloon ensures the catheter remains securely in the bladder, preventing leaks and promoting proper urine flow. Hard Plastic Non-Return Valve: The valve allows for straightforward inflation and deflation of the balloon and is color-coded for instant size identification. Elastic Drainage Funnel: The funnel is designed to securely grip the connector of a urine bag, helping to prevent accidental disconnection.
