Clinical Application
This small-bore male urethral catheter is intended for clinical situations that require atraumatic access to the bladder for drainage or diagnostic sampling. The 6 Fr lumen is typically selected when minimal urethral dilation is desired—appropriate for pediatric patients, adults with narrow urethral caliber, or procedures where a very small-caliber catheter is clinically indicated. Common settings include outpatient urology clinics, emergency departments, operating rooms, and inpatient wards for short-term catheterization and urine collection.
Design & Configuration
The 28 cm length is specified to accommodate male urethral anatomy and provide reliable bladder access without excessive external tubing. A 6 Fr diameter produces a low-profile, flexible catheter that reduces insertion resistance and patient discomfort compared with larger bore devices. The configuration supports simple insertion techniques used for intermittent catheterization and short-term drainage where minimal trauma and ease of passage are priorities.
