Lubri-Sil I.C. Silicone Cath. Bactiguard™ Coated; 16 CH Nel, 2 Lu, 10 ml, 40cm (12 pcs.)
Bactiguard™ again available!
The Bactiguard™ coated transurethral catheters, which lead to a clinically comprehensively proven reduction in catheter-associated urinary tract infections (UTI, CAUTI), have now been converted from MDD to MDR approval 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 both inside and outside with Bactiguard™ and additionally provided with a hydrophilic top layer.
The Bactiguard® technology is based on an ultra-thin layer of a precious metal alloy (gold, silver and platinum components) that is firmly bonded to the catheter surface. In contact with liquid (urine), the precious metals generate a galvanic effect that reduces microbial adhesion. By reducing the adhesion of bacteria to the catheter surface, biofilm formation and thus the risk of bacterial urinary tract infections are reduced.
The Bactiguard® coating is firmly bonded to the catheter core, so that no release of toxic or pharmacologically active substances takes place in relevant quantities.
The catheters are supplied in packaging units of 12 and can also be prescribed as practice supplies in some KVAs.
They can be obtained either directly from AUROSAN, or from pharmaceutical wholesalers or pharmacies and medical supply stores.
We will 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.
