Available in standard and pocket packaging, the latter designed for discretion and storage; both facilitate access for users with limited dexterity. The device is used by patients for self-catheterization to drain urine from the bladder. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including physical performance properties (EN 1618, EN 1616, EN 13868), biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1, -11, -12), and sterilization validation (ISO 11137-1, -2; AAMI/ANSI/ISO 11737-1, -2). ## Technological Characteristics Hydrophilic-coated (PVP-based) phthalate-free PVC catheter; includes protective sleeve and introducer tip; color-coded funnel; gamma irradiation sterilization. Complies with EN 1618, EN 1616, EN 13868, ISO 10993, and ISO 11137 standards. ## Regulatory Identification A urological catheter and accessories is a flexible tubular device that is inserted through the urethra and used to pass fluids to or from the urinary tract.
