Lubri-Sil I.C. Silicone Cath. Bactiguard™ Coated; 18 CH Nel, 3 Lu, 10 ml, 40cm (12 pcs)

Bactiguard™ is available again! 

The Bactiguard™ coated transurethral catheters, which lead to a clinically 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 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 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) that is firmly bonded to the catheter surface. In contact with fluid (urine), the precious metals create 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 is reduced.

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 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.
