DOVER 100% Silicone Foley Catheter 5cc Balloon, 2-Way, 17" Long, Sterile Non-reactive, non-adhering material reduces incidence of encrustation, urethritis, and stricture vs. latex. Color-coded inflation valve accepts luer lock and luer slip syringes. Packaged in an outer peel-back pouch and an easy-to-open inner sheath. Features and Benefits 100% Silicone Material - Inert material preferred for medical devices. Less urethral irritation and stricture versus latex material. Less encrustation compared to latex catheters. 100% Latex-Free Tip -- Smooth, separately molded, reinforced tip - Resists buckling Tip -- Deep stylet pocket - Accepts stylet securely Tip -- Bullet shape - Eases insertion, less tissue trauma Eyes -- Smooth, hand finished - No additional urethral trauma Eyes -- Large, oval shaped - Ideal size for maximum drainage & design will not allow material to obstruct drainage lumen Balloon -- Ribbed balloon - Increases strength & symmetry Balloon -- Smooth balloon to shaft transition - Eases insertion Shaft -- Soft, flexible, non-rigid - Allows for easy insertion, comfortable silicone Shaft -- Round, smooth, uniform French sized surface - Reduced irritation to urethra, true french sizes Shaft -- 30% larger inflation lumen due to patented extrusion process - Allows for greater flow rates Shaft -- 21% larger inflation lumen -Fast, easy insertion Shaft -- One wall construction due to patented extrusion process - Resists collapsing during forced irrigation Funnel -- Separately molded, ribbed, reinforced - Assures proper seal to drain bag connector & various irrigation syringes Valve -- Bespak spring-loaded valve - Provides consistent inflation/deflation of Foley catheter balloon Frequently Asked Questions: What is the benefit of having a silicone Foley catheter versus a latex Foley catheter? The advantage is the silicone material. Silicone is biocompatible. It is non-reactive to human tissue. Silicone is inorganic which is man-made, inert, and contains no extractable chemicals or proteins. Latex is an organic material that also contains numerous extractable chemicals and proteins which act as a good source for bacterial growth. Silicone is non-adherent. It repels urine, water, blood, and most organic materials to reduce the incidence of bacterial attachment and growth. Silicone is non-porous so it does not absorb body fluids. It eliminates "Foley Catheter Expansion" whereas latex is porous (acts like a sponge). Silicone is also 100% latex-free. Do silicone coated latex Foley catheters share the same benefits of the DOVER™ 100% Silicone Foley catheter? No. Silicone coated latex Foley catheters still utilize a latex platform and do not share the same benefits of a true, 100% silicone catheter (see above). Silicone coated catheters do not eliminate hypersensitivity concerns because they are still comprised of latex. Is silicone still considered stiff and uncomfortable? Silicone actually warms to the body's temperature and eventually molds to the shape of the urethra making it more flexible and comfortable.
