$46.95

Description

Pediatric Size: The catheter is a 6 French (Fr) size, which is a small diameter specifically designed for pediatric patients. Its length is typically 12 inches (26 cm).
Material: It is made from 100% silicone, making it latex-free and biocompatible. Silicone is known for being soft and flexible, which can reduce irritation and promote patient comfort, especially during long-term use.
2-Way Design: The catheter has two lumens. One lumen is for urinary drainage, and the other is for inflating the balloon. This design allows for efficient and effective bladder drainage while the balloon secures the catheter in place.
Balloon Capacity: The catheter has a 1.5 cc balloon capacity. The balloon, when inflated with sterile water, acts as an anchor to prevent the catheter from being dislodged from the bladder.
Included Stylet: The catheter comes with a stylet (also known as an introducer). This is a guide wire that is inserted into the catheter to provide rigidity during insertion, which can make the process smoother and less traumatic for the patient.
Radiopaque Stripe: The catheter has a radiopaque stripe that allows it to be easily detected on an X-ray, which is useful for confirming proper placement.
Sterile: The product is delivered in sterile packaging and is intended for a single use.

The Coloplast AA6106 is used for urinary drainage in pediatric patients. Its specific features make it suitable for:

Bladder Drainage: The primary use is to drain urine from the bladder, which may be necessary for patients with urinary retention, a blockage, or for post-surgical care.
Long-Term Catheterization: The 100% silicone material makes it suitable for use for up to 30 days, as silicone is less likely to cause irritation or allergic reactions than latex.
Fluid Instillation: The catheter can also be used for the instillation of physiological saline solution into the bladder.
Suprapubic Catheter Replacement: It can be used for bladder drainage via suprapubic catheterization for catheter replacement only.
