UTIs are a big issue for intermittent catheter users1
Antibiotic resistance from repeated use can be a health risk when treating recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs).2
Although intermittent catheters have improved, there can still be issues with UTIs.3

Damage from repeated catheter use can weaken the urethral defense increasing the risk of UTIs2
Why does current technology increase the risk of UTIs?
Traditional hydrophilic catheters have coatings that make them slippery on the way in, but they can become sticky when removed.3
This can cause discomfort, bleeding, and damage to your urethra leading to a higher chance of getting UTIs.3,4

Gentle Protection. Confident Living.
Your urethra is delicate and plays an important part in protecting against urinary tract infections, so it’s crucial your catheter is as gentle as possible.
Other hydrophilic catheters use coatings that are slippery when wet but can become sticky and uncomfortable as they dry, causing potential damage to your urethra.3,5
Our advanced, next generation technology means your GentleCath™ with FeelClean Technology™ catheters are naturally slippery when wet with no need for extra coatings and none of the stickiness, tugging, or mess.3
Try GentleCath™ catheters with FeelClean Technology™ for yourself.
