Foley Catheter McKesson 2-Way Coude Tip 30 cc Balloon 20 Fr. Hydrophilic Polymer Coated Latex | 1152052

The Foley Catheter McKesson 2-Way Coude Tip 30 cc Balloon 20 Fr. Hydrophilic Polymer Coated Latex is a premium urinary catheter designed for patients requiring precision catheterization and reliable bladder drainage. The Coude tip, combined with McKesson’s hydrophilic polymer coating, provides superior performance for challenging urethral anatomies while maintaining patient comfort and safety.

Coude Tip Design for Precision

Unlike standard tip catheters, the Coude tip has a slightly angled, curved design that helps navigate obstructions in the urethra, such as enlarged prostates or urethral strictures. This makes it especially useful in male patients who require precise placement in difficult-to-navigate urinary tracts.

The 20 French (Fr) size offers optimal urine flow capacity while balancing comfort, and the 30 cc balloon ensures the catheter remains securely in the bladder for consistent drainage.

Hydrophilic Polymer Coating for Smooth Insertion

This catheter features a hydrophilic polymer coating, which becomes slippery when activated with sterile water. The low-friction surface reduces urethral trauma, minimizes discomfort during insertion and removal, and helps prevent inflammation or irritation. This makes the catheter suitable for both short-term and long-term use.

Durable Latex Construction

The underlying latex material provides flexibility and strength. It allows the catheter to bend without kinking, ensuring smooth navigation through the urethra. The combination of latex and hydrophilic coating offers both reliability and patient comfort, even during prolonged use.

30 cc Balloon for Secure Placement

The integrated 30 cc balloon is designed to anchor the catheter securely within the bladder. Once inflated with sterile water, the balloon prevents accidental dislodgement while ensuring continuous urine drainage. The larger balloon volume is ideal for patients who require additional retention and security during movement or post-surgical recovery.

Applications

The McKesson 2-Way Coude Tip Foley Catheter 20 Fr with 30 cc balloon is suitable for a variety of clinical situations, including:

• Navigating challenging male urethras or strictures
