Bard Infection Control Foley Catheter, 2-Way, 18FR, 5cc Balloon, Coude

The BARDEX® I.C. anti-infective latex foley catheter is clinically proven to reduce catheter associated urinary tract infections. Incorporating a technologically advanced formulation consisting of Bactiguard® silver alloy coating and BARD® hydrogel, the BARDEX® I.C. foley catheter dramatically reduces bacterial adherence and minimizes biofilm formation. The occurrence of urinary tract infection is 3.7 times greater in patients catheterized with a standard catheter than in patients catheterized with the BARDEX® I.C. foley catheter with Bactiguard® silver alloy coating and BARD® hydrogel.

• Allows atraumatic insertion for enhanced patient comfort
• BARD® hydrogel coating maintains its integrity throughout the course of use, resulting in less trauma upon removal
