Lubri-Sil I.C. Silicone Cath. Bactiguard™ Coated; 22 FR Nel, 3 Luer, 30 ml, 40cm (12 pcs)
Bactiguard™ is back in stock!
The Bactiguard™ coated transurethral catheters, which have been comprehensively clinically proven to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections (UTI, CAUTI), have now been switched 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 clinically proven reduction of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (UTI, CAUTI).
The catheters are coated with Bactiguard™ both inside and out and additionally feature a hydrophilic top layer.
The Bactiguard® technology is based on a wafer-thin layer of a precious metal alloy (gold, silver, and platinum components) that is firmly bonded to the catheter surface. When in contact with liquid (urine), the precious metals create 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 packs 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, pharmacies, and medical supply stores.
We would be happy to advise you, provide you with clinical data and explain how to access the Bactiguard™-coated transurethral catheters Bardex I.C. or Lubri-Sil I.C.
