Foley & Indwelling Catheters are essential medical devices designed for long-term continuous urine drainage in patients who require urinary retention management. At LAC Health, our category includes a wide range of indwelling urinary catheters, commonly known as Foley catheters, available in various materials such as latex, silicone, and hydrogel-coated options to minimize infection risks and enhance patient comfort. These catheters feature balloon inflation for secure placement in the bladder, with sizes ranging from pediatric (8-10 Fr) to adult (12-30 Fr) to accommodate diverse patient needs, including standard lengths of 16 inches for males and 6-8 inches for females.
Key features include antimicrobial coatings, radiopaque tips for X-ray visibility, and graduated markings for accurate insertion. Clinically, these catheters are indispensable in hospitals for post-surgical care, in surgical centers for anesthesia-related procedures, in clinics for chronic conditions like urinary incontinence, in long-term care facilities for elderly patients, and in home health settings for palliative care. They ensure uninterrupted drainage, reducing the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) when used with proper aseptic techniques.
All products in this category meet stringent regulatory standards, including FDA clearance for safety and efficacy, ISO 13485 certification for quality management systems, CE marking for European compliance, and ASTM standards for material durability and biocompatibility. Selecting the right catheter involves assessing patient anatomy, material allergies (e.g., latex-free options), and clinical requirements; our sizing guides and expert consultations help healthcare professionals make informed choices.
For bulk ordering, LAC Health offers wholesale pricing with volume discounts, minimum order quantities (MOQs) starting at 50 units, and contract pricing for large-scale purchases by hospitals and distributors. This ensures cost-effective procurement without compromising on quality. Technical documentation, including Safety Data Sheets (SDS), Instructions for Use (IFU), and certificates of compliance, is readily available for download, supporting regulatory audits and safe usage.
