FAQs

Q: What does "14 French" mean for catheter sizing?

A: French (Fr) measures catheter diameter. 14 French equals approximately 4.7 millimeters outer diameter, providing adequate flow for most female intermittent catheterization needs without excessive discomfort.

Q: How do staggered eyes improve drainage compared to aligned eyes?

A: Staggered eye placement prevents all drainage openings from simultaneously contacting bladder tissue, ensuring at least one eye remains unobstructed for continuous urine flow throughout the procedure.

Q: Can I use lubricant with these vinyl catheters?

A: Yes, water-based sterile lubricant is recommended for comfortable insertion. Apply lubricant to catheter tip before insertion following your healthcare provider's instructions.

Q: Are these catheters appropriate for patients with latex sensitivities?

A: Absolutely. The PVC construction contains zero natural rubber latex, making them safe for individuals with latex allergies or sensitivities without compromising catheterization effectiveness.

Q: How many times per day can I perform catheterization with this product?

A: Catheterization frequency depends on your specific medical condition and physician's orders. Each catheter is sterile and single-use only—use one fresh catheter per catheterization event as prescribed.
