Welcome to the SpeediCath family – a new generation of safe, hygienic catheters that offer ease of use, greater comfort and minimal risk of urethral micro-trauma for all catheter users.

Why the need to use a catheter?
There are many reasons why some people cannot urinate voluntarily and need to empty their bladder via a catheter. The nerve supply to your bladder may have been damaged; you may suffer from back problems or an enlarged prostate. catheterization may also be necessary after certain types of surgery, or it may be caused by a particular condition you were born with.

What is a catheter?
Intermittent catheters are fine hollow tubes inserted into the bladder to drain away urine. They come in different lengths and sizes for men, women and children. The most advanced catheters have a thin surface coating. When immersed in water this ‘hydrophilic’ coating swells to a smooth, slippery film making the catheter safer and more comfortable to insert. SpeediCath – the new generation of catheters

The SpeediCath family represents a new generation of hydrophilic-coated catheters. What makes these catheters exceptional is their coating. Pre-hydrated, smooth and even, the SpeediCath coating creates minimal friction when inserting and removing the catheter. This makes catheterization more comfortable and reduces the risk of urethral micro-trauma – even if you have to self-catheterize for a lifetime.

Among SpeediCath’s other unique features are:

pre-hydrated catheters that are ready-to-use right out of the pack. No need to bring water and no wait
polished eyelets that are gentle on the urethra minimising discomfort and the risk of micro-trauma
different versions to suit different needs - from a standard catheter to a compact or closed system version
PVC and phthalates free

The Self-Cath family of 100% latex-free catheters offers patients a variety of options for intermittent self-catheterization. Each catheter is made of flexible medical grade PVC and has smooth fire polished eyelets for patient comfort and ease of use. Self-Cath catheters are offered in an assortment of designs: Straight Tip, Female, Soft, Tapered Tip Coude with Guide Stripe®, and Olive Tip Coude with Guide Stripe®.

Your clinician or physician will help you determine which type of Self-Cath is best for you.
