Product Description

CIC (Clean Intermittent Catheterisation) catheter is a medical device that helps in draining urine by inserting a catheter into the urethra. After finishing the draining procedure the catheter is removed. This is a vital method to preserve kidney health by reducing bladder pressure and it also helps in reducing the risk of UTIs (urinary tract infection).

The act of draining urine involves inserting a thin tube into the bladder through the urethra. The urine drains out with the help of a catheter (a thin hollow tube) into a container. After this, the catheter should be removed. In CIC, every word stands with a meaning like C (Clean: germ-free), I (Intermittent: schedule many times a day), and C (Catheterization: using a thin tube). To provide comfortable and easy advancement this catheter is made up of soft silicone, which is firm enough for easy insertion.
