Description
Key features of the Lubri-Sil I.C. temperature-sensing catheter:
- Infection control (I.C.) technology: It has a Bacti-Guard silver alloy coating with a hydrogel to create an anti-infective barrier. This coating reduces bacterial adherence, which is often linked to catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs).
- Dual-purpose function: It drains and collects urine, and also measures core body temperature.
- 100% silicone construction: The catheter is made of silicone, which is latex-free and minimizes patient irritation and allergic reactions. It is suitable for patients with latex sensitivities.
- Hydrogel coating: The hydrogel coating reduces friction and irritation against the urethral tissue, improving patient comfort.
- Compatible temperature probe: The integrated temperature sensor is a 400-series thermistor, making it compatible with patient monitors that need 400-series temperature probes.
- Accessory trays: The catheter is often included in a tray system with components for aseptic insertion, including a urine meter and an EZ-Lok sampling port for infection control.
- 2-Way design: “2-Way” means it has two channels: one for urine drainage and a second for inflating and deflating the retention balloon.
