Discover GentleCath™ with FeelClean™ Technology Today
Antibiotic resistance from repeated use can be a health risk when treating recurrent urinary track infections (UTIs).4
Although intermittent catheters have improved, there can still be issues with UTIs.1
Damage from repeated catheter use can weaken the urethral defense increasing the risk of UTIs5
Traditional hydrophilic catheters have coatings that make them slippery on the way in, but they can become sticky when removed.1
This can cause discomfort, bleeding, and damage to your urethra leading to a higher chance of getting UTIs.1,4
Watch this video to learn more about how FeelClean™ Technology works.
GentleCath™ with FeelClean™ Technology is the first and only catheter where the slippery hydrophilic properties are integrated inside the catheter itself rather than having a sticky coating.
Without this coating, FeelClean™ Technology does not stick, so protects your delicate urethra,1,2 your body's first line of defense against UTIs.*6
Independently tested against at Queen’s University Belfast.
GentleCath™ with FeelClean™ Technology is designed to improve outcomes and quality of life for intermittent catheter users.2
