Intended Use

SpeediCath Soft is indicated for use by patients with urine retention and patients with post void residual volume (PVR) due to neurogenic and non-neurogenic voiding dysfunction. The catheter is inserted into the bladder allowing urine to drain. The product is for adult male patients only.

Device Story

SpeediCath Soft is a sterile, single-use, hydrophilic-coated polyurethane intermittent urinary catheter for adult males. It features a straight (Nelaton) tip and an integrated grip to protect the catheter from direct contact during insertion. The device is supplied in a foil pouch with a color-coded connector for size identification. The user inserts the catheter through the urethra into the bladder to facilitate urine drainage. The hydrophilic coating, activated by a saline/PEG wetting agent, reduces friction during insertion. The device is intended for use by patients with voiding dysfunction to manage urine retention. By providing a sterile, lubricated pathway for drainage, it helps prevent complications associated with chronic retention and improves patient quality of life. It is a manual device operated by the patient.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance was validated against recognized standards including ISO 10993-1 (biocompatibility), ASTM F1980-16 (aging), ASTM F623-99:2013/ISO 20696:2018 (flow rate, surface finish, dimensions, strength, kink stability), ASTM D1894:2014 (friction), and usability testing per EN 62366/ISO 62366-1. All tests met pre-determined acceptance criteria.

Technological Characteristics

Hydrophilic-coated polyurethane catheter; PVP-based coating; saline/PEG wetting agent. Straight (Nelaton) tip. Thermolast M TM7MED/LLDPE grip. Color-coded LLDPE connectors. Sterilized via e-beam (SAL 10^-6). Packaging: Polyamide/aluminum/PE foil pouch. Complies with ISO 10993, ISO 20696, ASTM F623, ASTM D1894.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adult male patients with urine retention and post void residual volume (PVR) due to neurogenic and non-neurogenic voiding dysfunction.

The catheter is to be used for intermittent drainage of the bladder through the urethra by adult males with missing or reduced bladder control. The catheter has a grip which serves as protection from the user's touch and aids the user during insertion. Intended Use: Intermittent urinary drainage catheter SpeediCath Soft is indicated for use by patients with urine Indications for Use: retention and patients with post void residual volume (PVR) due to neurogenic and non-neurogenic voiding dysfunction. The catheter is inserted into the urethra to reach the bladder allowing urine to drain. The product is for adult male patients only. Technological The subject device has the same intended use, indications for Characteristics: use, catheter sizes, technological characteristics, principles of operation, and performance specifications as the predicate The subject device includes the same catheter device. material, swelling medium (wetting agent), and hydrophilic coating as the predicate device. The differences between the subject device and predicate device are in the following: The subject device contains a grip, instead of a . protective sleeve as with the predicate device, which protects the catheter from direct contact with the user's touch and aids the user during insertion of the catheter. The material of the grip is the same material as the predicate device handle and connector (K190620). ● The subject device has a straight tip design instead of a pre-formed flexible curved tip (bended). The straight tip design was previously cleared under the reference device, K180258. The tip is composed of the same material as the catheter of the predicate device, (K190620). ● The subject device has a color-coded outer connector to aid in the identification of catheter sizes. The colorcoded outer connectors are identical to the connectors of the reference device (K180258). - The primary packaging design of the subject device is a foil pouch consisting of a top foil (layers of {5}------------------------------------------------ SpeediCath Soft Traditional 510(k) Notification Image /page/5/Picture/1 description: The image shows the text "K200192, pg. 3 of 9" at the top.

The thickness of the aluminum layers in the top and bottom foils of the subject device packaging has been reduced in comparison to the reference device packaging (K180258) to improve the environmental footprint and cost-effectiveness of the packaging. The opening feature pull-ring was updated to an oval shape, versus a ring shape as with the reference device (K180258), for ease of opening. The primary packaging color, the print tape color and wall sticker dimensions and color were updated as part of a packaging alignment across the SpeediCath portfolio. The primary packaging configuration and dimensions are identical to those of the reference device packaging cleared under K180258. - . The subject device has 10 mm distance between the drainage eyelets, whereas the reference device K180258, SpeediCath Standard, has 12 mm between eyelets. Additionally, the length from the edge of the first eyelet to the catheter tip (tip length) and the length from the bottom edge of the grip to the first eyelet (draining length) varies with the catheter size.

SpeediCath Soft differs from the predicate device in regard to the grip to aid insertion, the color-coded outer connector, primary packaging materials, and catheter tip. The grip protects the catheter from direct contact with the user's touch and aids the user during insertion of the catheter. The colorcoded outer connector aids the user in the identification of catheter sizes. The primary packaging provides the sterile barrier of the device and contains a proof of seal for detection of the non-broken sterile barrier. The subject device has a straight tip whereas the predicate device has a pre-formed flexible curved tip (bended). The straight tip design was previously cleared under the reference device K180258. The described features do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.
