LoFric Coude Male Hydro-Kit

Description

LoFric Coude Hydro-Kit is truly an all-in-one catheter system – it includes the catheter with water and an integrated urine collection bag. Wheelchair users find it particularly convenient, and its collection bag also makes it ideal for bedridden patients in need of post-op bladder emptying.

Indications for Use:  Intermittent catheterization of the urethra.

LoFric Catheters are single-use hydrophilic urinary catheters.  Once used, the unique surface coating will deteriorate and the catheter will no longer be sterile.  The hydrophilic coating on the catheter consists of PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone) and sodium chloride, which reduce urethral friction.  They are used to empty the bladder of urine, occasionally and intermittently, at home or in a hospital.

NOTE:  Do not place LoFric catheters on paper or cloth, as these materials can absorb the catheter's liquid coating.  Be sure to follow your health care provider's instructions when using these products.

Wash your hands with soap and water before preparing the catheter.

LoFric Hydro-Kit Instructions for Use

1. Hold the bag upright, then fold and squeeze the water sachet.
2. Let the catheter soak for at least 30 seconds.
3. Invert the bag.
4. Tear off where shown at piece "A".
5. Tear and separate "B" from "C", but don't remove it.  Use "B" as your handling aid and pull the catheter down to make a tight seal at the bottom of "C" (around the neck).
6. After catheterizing, separate and discard the catheter by tearing at "C'.  Tie a knot to seal the bag, or use our LoFric clip.  Discard the bag with it contents or tear a slit to empty before disposal.
