Clinical Application
Designed for transurethral bladder drainage in adult male patients with prostatic enlargement or obstruction. Commonly used for relief of acute urinary retention, temporary indwelling catheterization following urologic procedures involving the prostate, and routine bladder drainage when a smaller-diameter catheter is clinically indicated. The 12 Fr size offers a balance between lumen patency and patient comfort for short-term drainage.
Design & Configuration
This prostate-pattern catheter is configured for male urethral anatomy to facilitate atraumatic placement and stable positioning. The 12 Fr diameter provides a modest lumen for effective urine flow while minimizing urethral distension and insertion discomfort compared with larger French sizes. Key clinical considerations when selecting this configuration include anticipated drainage requirements, risk of clogging, and duration of catheterization.
