Rusch Siliconized Tiemann Coudé Intermittent Catheter 18 Fr 221800180 - Box of 50

🔷 Product Overview

The Rusch® Siliconized Tiemann Coudé Intermittent Catheter 18 Fr (221800180) is a sterile, single-use intermittent catheter designed for individuals who require a Coudé (Tiemann) tip rather than a standard straight tip catheter. The gently curved tip and siliconized PVC construction provide a balance of flexibility and firmness, helping facilitate catheter insertion when recommended by a healthcare professional.

Measuring 16 inches (40.6 cm) in length, this male-length catheter features staggered recessed eyelets for efficient drainage, a color-coded tip for easy size identification, and a funnel notch that indicates the orientation of the curved tip during insertion. The catheter is not made with natural rubber latex and is supplied sterile for single use.

Each box contains 50 individually packaged catheters.

Note: A Coudé tip catheter should be used only as recommended by a healthcare professional.
