Lubri-Sil I.C. Silicone Cath. Bactiguard® coated; CH16 Nel 2-way 10ml L40 (12 pcs)

Lubri-Sil™ I.C. Siliconeurinary catheters with Bard® Hydrogel and Bactiguard® precious metal coating are available again!

The Bactiguard® coated transurethral catheters, which lead to a clinically comprehensively proven reduction of 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, coated with Bard® Hydrogel and Bactiguard®

and 

Lubri-Sil™ I.C.: Silicone core coated with Bard® Hydrogel and Bactiguard® precious metal alloy

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 both inside and out with Bard® Hydrogel and Bactiguard® coated.

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. Upon contact with fluid (urine), the precious metals generate a galvanic effect that reduces microbial adhesion. The reduced adherence of bacteria to the catheter surface minimizes biofilm formation and thus the risk of bacterial urinary tract infections.

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

The catheters are supplied in packs of 12 and are also prescribable as practice supplies in some statutory health insurance associations.
Procurement is either directly through AUROSAN, or through pharmaceutical wholesalers, 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. urinary catheters with hydrogel and precious metal alloy.
