Constructed from transparent silicone elastomer with a radiopaque line; features a shaft with three lumens: one for drainage, one for balloon inflation/deflation, and one for irrigation/injection. Distal end includes opposite eye holes for drainage. Available in sizes 18 Fr to 24 Fr with various tip configurations (DUFOUR, DELINOTTE, COUVELAIRE, or standard); total length 42 cm. Used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals for post-prostatectomy management. The device is inserted into the urinary tract; the balloon is inflated (15-30 cm³ or 30-50 cm³) to secure the catheter in place. Provides drainage and hemostasis, facilitating post-operative recovery. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Performance evaluated per FDA 'Guidance for the content of premarket notifications and functional testing for conventional and antinational Foley catheters' (1994) and ASTM F 623-89. Testing included flow rate, balloon rupture resistance, balloon inflation maintenance, manufacturing tolerances, shaft tensile strength, tip adherence, and deflation reliability after seven-day submersion. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-1. ## Technological Characteristics Material: Silicone elastomer. Design: 3-way balloon catheter, 18-24 Fr, 42 cm length. Features: Radiopaque line, Luer-activated valve, multiple tip options. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Sterile, single-use. Standards: ASTM F 623-89 (test methods), ISO 10993-1 (biocompatibility). ## 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. This generic type of device includes radiopaque urological catheters, ureteral catheters, urethral catheters, coudé catheters, balloon retention type catheters, straight catheters, upper urinary tract catheters, double lumen female urethrographic catheters, disposable ureteral catheters, male urethrographic catheters, and urological catheter accessories including ureteral catheter stylets, ureteral catheter adapters, ureteral catheter holders, ureteral catheter stylets, ureteral catheterization trays, and the gastro-urological irrigation tray (for urological use). ## Predicate Devices - modified paediatric silicone catheter - Bardex® All-silicone 3-way Foley catheter (BARD) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
