Product Description
This is a ConvaTec GentleCath uncoated intermittent urinary catheter in the female straight-tip format, intended for short-term/intermittent urinary drainage by a trained user or caregiver. It is supplied by the manufacturer as a sterile single-use PVC catheter in the 12 French size.
Specifications
- French size: 12 FR (12 CH).
- Material: uncoated PVC (polyvinyl chloride) as specified by the manufacturer.
- Tip: straight, soft rounded tip (female-length profile).
- Tube length: manufacturer lists female-length at approximately 6.5 inches (female format).
- Eyelets: polished/rounded drainage eyelets are specified by the manufacturer.
- Connector: funnel/connector is color-coded for size identification.
What is included
- Manufacturer product is sold as individually sterile single-use catheters; manufacturer ordering information lists a boxed option of 100 units under SKU 501021. The attached photograph shows catheter shafts/tips and does not show the sealed outer carton; quantity/packaging in the supplied photo therefore conflicts with the working title "BX/100".
Condition and packaging
- Manufacturer advertises a factory-packed box of 100 sterile single-use catheters for SKU 501021. The supplied photo appears to be a studio/here-image of unpackaged catheters rather than a photo of a sealed box; buyers should confirm pack state on purchase.
Usage notes
- Single-use, sterile; dispose after use per local clinical waste guidance.
- This is an uncoated PVC catheter (not hydrophilic/hydrated); follow the included instructions for preparation and insertion.
Limitations and who this is not suitable for
- Not intended for indwelling use. Do not substitute for a hydrophilic or pre-lubricated product if a clinician prescribes those formats.
Warnings
- The supplied photo and the box quantity in the working title conflict; confirm pack size and sealed packaging with seller before purchase. If you require a hydrophilic or pre-lubricated surface, choose the Glide/hydrophilic format rather than this uncoated PVC product.
