Hydrophilic Catheter Promotes Discrete Bladder Drainage

The hydrophilic catheter is designed to be lubricated when it comes into contact with sterile water or a saline solution, which eases friction on the urethra upon insertion. Catheter stiffness has been designed to support easy, one-handed, touch-free insertion.

The Infyna Chic comes enclosed in a pink pearlescent polypropylene carrying case. The disposable case also features a unique flip cap that is easy to open and close with just one hand, and does not leak when reclosed after use. The single use case and catheter are supplied in boxes containing 30 catheters each. When needed, a standard collection bag can be attached to the catheter, even without removing it from the case.

“At Hollister, we understand how important discretion is for women who use intermittent catheters. We are thrilled to address this need by bringing our discreet, beautiful and easy to use Infyna Chic catheter to the US market,” said Abinash Nayak, vice president Americas for Hollister Incorporated. “We look forward to continuing to deliver innovative solutions that help make life more rewarding and dignified for people who use our products and services.”

Women with neurogenic bladder disorders like spinal cord injury, spina bifida or multiple sclerosis, and those with other bladder disorders such as urethral strictures or post-operative urinary retention, need to be continuously catheterized to empty their bladders to avoid potential urinary tract infections (UTIs).
