Bardex Foley Catheter
The Bardex Foley Catheter is a reliable, clinically trusted indwelling urinary catheter designed for long-term comfort and smooth insertion. Made from high-quality latex and coated with Bard’s hydrophilic hydrogel layer, it becomes soft, slippery, and highly biocompatible once hydrated, reducing friction and irritation in the urethra.
Key Features
-
Hydrogel-coated latex shaft
Provides a smooth, lubricious surface that minimises friction during insertion and while in situ. -
Soft, round retention balloon
Ensures secure placement within the bladder and reduces pressure points. -
Two-way Foley design
Includes one channel for urine drainage and one for balloon inflation. -
Colour-coded valve
Allows easy identification of catheter size and secure connection to syringes for balloon inflation. -
Enhanced flexibility
Latex core provides strength and pliability, ensuring comfort even during longer dwell times. -
Universal drainage port
Compatible with all standard urine drainage bags and night bags. -
Sterile & single-use
Each catheter is individually packaged to maintain hygiene and minimise infection risk.
