The C.R. Bard 0102SI12 is a 2-Way, Specialty, Tiemann Model Foley Catheter, designed to provide a reliable and comfortable solution for continuous urine drainage. This catheter is 12FR in size and features a medium olive coude tip and a single eye for efficient urine flow. It includes a 5cc balloon, which is inflated with sterile water to securely anchor the catheter in the bladder.
The catheter is made from red latex and is coated with a Bactiguard silver alloy and BD hydrogel. This advanced formulation significantly reduces bacterial adherence and minimizes biofilm formation, thereby reducing the risk of catheter-associated urinary tract infections. In fact, clinical studies have shown that the occurrence of urinary tract infections is 3.7 times greater in patients catheterized with a standard catheter than in patients catheterized with the Bardex I.C. Foley catheter.
This product is available in a range of sizes (12-30 Fr.) and tip configurations (Coude and straight), offering versatility to cater to the unique needs of various patients. The catheter is sold in a case of 12 units, ensuring you have an ample supply for your medical needs. Please note that this catheter is designed for long-term use and should be inserted and removed by a healthcare professional.
