Lubri-Sil I.C. Silicone Catheter, Bactiguard™ Coated; 14 CH Nelaton, 2 Lumens, 10 ml, 40 cm (12 pcs.)

Bactiguard™ available again! 

The Bactiguard™ coated transurethral catheters, which lead to a clinically comprehensively proven reduction in catheter-associated urinary tract infections (UTI, CAUTI), have now been reclassified from MDD to MDR and are available again.

There are now two variants: 

Bardex I.C. Latex core with Bactiguard™ coating

and 

Lubri-Sil I.C. Silicone core with Bactiguard™ coating

The I.C. stands for "Infection Control", i.e., the above-mentioned clinically proven reduction in catheter-associated urinary tract infections (UTI, CAUTI).

The catheters are coated with Bactiguard™ both inside and out and additionally provided with a hydrophilic top layer.

The Bactiguard® technology is based on a wafer-thin layer of a noble metal alloy (gold, silver, and platinum components) that is firmly bonded to the catheter surface. In contact with liquid (urine), the noble metals generate a galvanic effect that reduces microbial adhesion. The reduced adhesion of bacteria to the catheter surface reduces biofilm formation and thus the risk of bacterial urinary tract infections.

The Bactiguard® coating is firmly bonded to the catheter core, so that no toxic or pharmacologically active substances are released in relevant quantities.

The catheters are supplied in packaging units of 12 and can also be prescribed for office use in some KV regions.
They can be obtained either directly from AUROSAN, or via pharmaceutical wholesalers or pharmacies and medical supply stores.

We would be happy to advise you, inform you about the clinical data, and explain how to access the Bactiguard™-coated transurethral catheters Bardex I.C. or Lubri-Sil I.C.
