Product Description
The SupraCath catheter range is designed for long term suprapubic and urethral catheterisation. Made from soft medical grade silicone, these catheters offer flexibility and comfort compared to traditional materials. The open ended tip and large side drainage ports support strong urinary outflow, while the shorter tip beyond the balloon helps minimise bladder wall irritation and the risk of blockage. The design allows a catheter of larger French size to be inserted through standard suprapubic introducers, providing greater drainage capacity without increasing the puncture size.
Key Features
- Soft silicone construction – Medical grade, hypoallergenic material suitable for long term use.
- Open ended tip – Large drainage holes to support maximum urine flow and help reduce blockage.
- Short distal tip – Short tip beyond the balloon to reduce bladder wall irritation and outflow obstruction.
- Introducer compatible – Designed to allow a catheter of larger French size to pass through a standard suprapubic introducer puncture site.
- Wide size range – Available in multiple French sizes, lengths and balloon capacities to suit different clinical needs.
