Bard Catheter Plug And Cap

My home health care team ordered me some plugs for my Supra Pubic Catheter. They were too big and would not stay in. Yours fit perfectly and I was so glad to have found you. Do you carry sterile water for flushing?

This catheter plug is perfect because it fits any size catheter. We just insert it before showering so my husband doesn’t have to wear a catheter bag in the shower. A second wonderful discovery is to use it to temporarily close off the tube for 15 minutes after injecting very mild sterile acetic acid into the super public tube. The acid sitting in the bladder changes the pH slightly so bacteria don’t grow easily. This was a game changer for us. We went from constant infections to extremely rare. Buy a few extra caps though because aides don’t realize they’re completely reusable and throw them away by mistake.

Hard to remove cap when assembled firmly.

Works great when you shower. You don’t get bag and straps wet.

The plug and cap works perfectly and with the warmer weather it would be wonderful to be able to wear shorts.
Unfortunately I tried to use them and I suffer with bladder pain in less than an hour. I don't know if my bladder has shrunk from having a suprapubic catheter in since Nov. or as the doctor said I may have an over active bladder because of the radiation, chemo and the catheter. Hoped meds would settle the bladder down but it doesn't appear to be working.

I received my order in a timely manner and it was correct.

Will be useful. Still new to the suprapubic catheter world - two weeks in.

These help make showering so much easier and less messy. Great price for this product.

Works perfect.
