Depending on the duration of their usage, there are 3 main types of urinary catheters- Intermittent Catheters, Indwelling Catheters and External Catheters.
An intermittent catheter is a short-term use catheter that allows the person to empty their bladder after surgery. It is most commonly used to cater to the patient's urological needs right after a surgical process or during the recovery period. Once the bladder is completely emptied, one needs to remove the catheter and wash it properly for next use. These catheters come with a drainage bag that is either draped around the side of the bed or fixed on the leg of the patient. It must be evacuated once full, so that the patient does not get any skin infections.
Some of our top selling intermittent catheters are the Bard Bardia All Purpose Urethral Catheter which is made out of red latex for increased firmness compared to regular latex. The red rubber catheter is radiopaque with a round and hollow tip. It can be used both as a robinson and a nelaton catheter, and the Amsino AMSure Male Urethral Catheter which offers a smooth surface firm enough for insertion yet soft enough to be slightly pliable. Staggered eyes maintain tip strength during insertion and promote efficient drainage.
