Lubri-Sil I.C. Silicone Cath. Bactiguard™ Coated; 24 FR Nel, 2 Lum, 30 ml, 40cm (12 pcs.)
Bactiguard™ is available again!
The Bactiguard™ coated transurethral catheters, which lead to a clinically proven reduction in catheter-associated urinary tract infections (UTI, CAUTI), have now been re-approved 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 of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (UTI, CAUTI).
The catheters are coated with Bactiguard™ both internally and externally and additionally provided with a hydrophilic top layer.
Bactiguard® technology is based on a wafer-thin layer of a precious metal alloy (gold, silver and platinum components), which is firmly bonded to the catheter surface. In contact with liquid (urine), the precious 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 packing units of 12 and can also be prescribed as practice supplies in some KV areas.
They can be obtained directly from AUROSAN, or through pharmaceutical wholesalers, pharmacies or 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.
