FAQs

Q: What's the difference between straight tip and coudé tip catheters?

A: Straight tip catheters insert directly through the urethra with minimal curve, suitable for standard anatomy. Coudé tips feature a gentle upward angle designed to navigate obstructions like enlarged prostates or urethral strictures more easily. Your urologist will recommend the appropriate tip based on your anatomy.

Q: How do I choose the correct French size?

A: French size selection depends on urethral diameter, flow rate needs, and individual anatomy. Smaller sizes (8Fr-10Fr) suit narrower urethras, while larger sizes (14Fr-16Fr) allow faster drainage. Always follow your healthcare provider's prescribed size—using incorrect sizing can cause trauma or incomplete drainage.

Q: Can these catheters be reused or cleaned?

A: No. These are single-use disposable catheters designed for one catheterization event only. Reusing catheters dramatically increases urinary tract infection risk and compromises sterility. Discard immediately after each use and open a fresh sterile catheter for the next scheduled catheterization.

Q: Which variant includes the funnel attachment?

A: The 12Fr Straight Tip with White Funnel variant comes with an integrated funnel end that improves urine collection control during drainage. All other variants are standard catheter tubes without funnel attachment. The funnel helps direct flow into collection containers with less spillage.

Q: Are these catheters covered by insurance or Medicare?

A: Many insurance plans and Medicare Part B cover intermittent catheters when medically necessary and prescribed by a physician. Coverage typically requires documentation of urinary retention or bladder dysfunction. Contact your insurance provider to verify coverage details, prior authorization requirements, and preferred supplier networks before ordering.
