Open Tip ending providing additional drainage performance, helping to improve urine flow and reduce the risk of blockages, supporting effective and uninterrupted drainage. - Facilitates Guidewire Catheterisation and Exchange
Compatible with guidewires, the catheters enable eased placement and smooth exchanges, improving efficiency and reliability in challenging clinical scenarios.
- Biocompatible Silicone for Patient Comfort
Crafted from 100% silicone, the catheters are designed to minimise irritation and ensure comfort during long-term use. They are free from PVC, latex, phthalates, bisphenols, and PFAS.

The catheters are suitable for transurethral urinary drainage and suprapubic catheter replacement (CH12-18). They are available in both pediatric and adult patient sizes.
- Reliable Performance for Long-Term Use
Designed for up to 90 days of indwelling use, the catheters ensure reliable performance for long-term urinary management. Each pack includes a prefilled syringe (10% aqueous glycerine solution) plus one empty syringe, and peel-off patient labels with Ref-codes and lot information for traceability and documentation.
The open tip silicone Foley catheters retain all the trusted features of UNOQUIP silicone Foley catheters, such as a close-fitting balloon with excellent geometry, transparent material, self-closing valves (PVC-free), and universal funnel connectors.
