What is a silver catheter?
A silver catheter is one like this bardex catheter – it is coated in a silver alloy material that prevents encrustation and repels bacteria. This helps to prevent the patient from getting urinary tract infections while they’re using the catheter. The hydrogel coating on the tubing helps the catheter become more user-friendly. It creates a cushioned barrier between the walls of the urethra and bladder opening for easier insertion and removal of this device.
