Description
The Romsons Foley Trac 2 Way Foley Balloon Catheter is a medical device intended for bladder catheterization to facilitate urine drainage. It is constructed from latex with a silicone elastomer coating. This two-way catheter features one channel for draining urine and a second channel for inflating the balloon that holds it in place within the bladder. The design is focused on providing a solution for short or long-term urine drainage requirements.
Silicone Coated Material: The catheter is made of latex bonded with a silicone elastomer, which helps reduce the risk of encrustation. Smooth Insertion Design: It features a coned, soft closed tip and smooth, burr-free eyes to allow for non-traumatic intubation. Symmetrical Balloon: A large capacity, symmetrical balloon is designed to anchor the catheter securely in the bladder, aiding in proper urine flow and preventing leakage. Hard Non-Return Valve: Equipped with a hard plastic, non-return valve for inflation and deflation of the balloon. Color-Coded Valve: The valve is color-coded for quick and easy size identification by healthcare professionals.
