The C.R. Bard 0103L24 is a Lubricath Foley Catheter, designed for use in medical settings where a patient is unable to independently drain urine from the bladder. This 2-Way, Coude Tip catheter features a 30 cc balloon and is 24 FR in size. It is coated with a hydrophilic polymer and is made from red latex.
The catheter is part of the Bardex I.C. anti-infective latex Foley catheter range, which is clinically proven to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections. This is achieved through a technologically-advanced formulation that includes a Bactiguard* silver alloy coating and BD hydrogel. This combination dramatically reduces bacterial adherence and minimizes biofilm formation.
The catheter is available in multiple sizes, ranging from 12-30 Fr, and comes in different tip configurations, including Coude and straight. Studies have shown that the occurrence of urinary tract infection is 3.7 times greater in patients catheterized with a standard catheter than in patients catheterized with the Bardex I.C. Foley catheter with Bactiguard silver alloy coating and BD hydrogel.
This product is sold in cases of 12 units.
