PVC stands for polyvinyl chloride, a plastic material that is generally used for making medical products like tubing, examination gloves, blood bags, etc. Catheters made from PVC are firm, clear, and pliable. Although firm, they are flexible enough for easy insertion into the urethra. Many manufacturers use plasticizers to make their PVC catheters more pliable. PVC catheters are also referred to as vinyl catheters. PVC catheters are translucent, allowing patients and their health care providers to easily see the urine color.
PVC catheters are intended for draining urine from the bladder for those who have an incontinence problem. Intermittent PVC catheters are designed to be used short-term and are available in different sizes. Short-term catheterization helps reduce the chances of urinary tract infections. PVC catheters facilitate easy insertion, increasing patient comfort and
minimizing urethral trauma. HPFY offers PVC catheters in male, female, and pediatric models. These catheters are often latex-free and are ideal for people with latex allergies.
