Description
Cure Catheters by Cure Medical are expertly designed for individuals requiring intermittent catheterization due to conditions such as urinary retention, incontinence, spinal cord injuries, spina bifida, or multiple sclerosis. These sterile, single-use catheters are available in various lengths and tip designs to accommodate men, women, and children, ensuring a suitable option for every need.
Material and Safety
Crafted from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), Cure Catheters are free from DEHP, DINP, BPA, and natural rubber latex, minimizing exposure to harmful chemicals and allergens. Select models are also available in silicone or glass, providing additional material options.
Design Features
The catheters feature smooth, fire-polished or cold-punched eyelets to enhance comfort and reduce insertion resistance. Their firm yet flexible construction aids in easy navigation through the urethra without kinking. The clear material allows for urine observation, adding an extra layer of practicality.
Tip and Size Options
Cure Catheters come in straight or coude tip versions, with lengths tailored for male, female, and pediatric users. The size range spans from 8 to 18 French (FR), with color-coded funnel ends for easy identification.
Lubrication Options
These catheters are available in uncoated, pre-lubricated, and hydrophilic-coated versions. The hydrophilic coating is activated in-package with water, providing a slippery surface for easier insertion. No-touch sleeve or gripper sleeve options are available for clean handling.
Packaging and Accessories
Cure Catheters are packaged in ready-to-use, sterile conditions with some models offering dual package openings for convenience. The compact, flexible packaging is designed to minimize environmental impact. Some catheter kits include essential insertion supplies such as BZK wipes, gloves, underpad, lubricant, and a collection bag. Additional accessories like extension tubes, clothing holders, and urine containers are also available.

Usage Guidelines
Cure Catheters are designed for single use and should be discarded after use. Proper hygiene and aseptic techniques are crucial during insertion and maintenance to prevent infections. Pre-lubricated or hydrophilic models eliminate the need for additional lubricant, streamlining the catheterization process.
