Manfred Sauer IQ Cath Hydrophilic Catheter Peel Packet

Description

The iQ-CATH Hydrophilic Peel-pack from Manfred Sauer GmbH is a single-use sterile intermittent catheter designed for intermittent and self-catheterisation. This product family is supplied pre-activated, so the catheter is immediately ready for use without an additional activation step. Sources describe the catheter as immersed in 0.9% saline, helping maintain the hydrophilic surface in a prepared state for use when opened.

The hydrophilic coating creates a smooth, low-friction surface during both insertion and removal. This can support more comfortable handling and may help reduce friction associated with catheterisation. Each catheter is presented in sterile peel-pack packaging, with the women’s version specifically described as being individually wrapped in a single sterile pack.
