Description

The SpeediCath Compact Plus Female by Coloplast is an innovative solution designed to meet the needs of women requiring intermittent self-catheterization. This ready-to-use urinary catheter is distinguished by its hydrophilic coating, providing a pre-lubricated surface that ensures smooth and comfortable insertion and withdrawal. This feature significantly reduces friction, enhancing comfort and minimizing urethral microtrauma.
