Bard Lubri-Sil Infection Control Catheters, model numbers 70516SI and 70520SI, designed to provide exceptional performance and reliability for patients requiring urinary catheterization. These catheters are engineered with advanced materials and innovative features that prioritize both comfort and safety, making them an essential tool in infection control and patient care.

Key Features:

- Silicone Coating: The Bard Lubri-Sil catheters are coated with a unique silicone material that enhances biocompatibility and reduces friction, allowing for smoother insertion and removal. This feature significantly minimizes trauma to the urethra and enhances patient comfort.

- Infection Control Technology: Each catheter is designed with infection prevention in mind. The materials used in the construction of these catheters help reduce the risk of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs), promoting better health outcomes for patients.

- Hydrophilic Properties: The hydrophilic coating activates upon contact with water, creating a slippery surface that facilitates easy insertion. This property helps to further reduce the risk of injury and discomfort during catheterization.

- Multiple Sizes Available: The Bard Lubri-Sil catheters come in various sizes, including 16 French (70516SI) and 20 French (70520SI), allowing healthcare providers to choose the appropriate size for each patient’s needs. This versatility ensures optimal fit and function.

- Pre-Lubricated Design: The catheters are pre-lubricated, eliminating the need for additional gels or lubricants. This feature not only saves time during procedures but also reduces the risk of introducing contaminants.

- Smooth Eyelets: The catheters are equipped with smooth, rounded eyelets that facilitate drainage and minimize the risk of urethral irritation. This design promotes better urine flow and enhances patient comfort.

- Sterile Packaging: Each catheter is individually packaged in a sterile environment, ensuring that it remains free from contaminants until it is ready for use. This feature is crucial for maintaining patient safety and hygiene.
