Coloplast Self Catheter Female Straight Tip w/o Connector 14 Fr 6" Single

Why Choose Coloplast Self-Cath Female Straight Tip without Connector 14Fr 6" Single

This catheter is built for adult female users on a clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) routine who have been clinically directed to a straight tip catheter at 14Fr calibre with a female-length 6" shaft and without a connector at the proximal end. Female-length catheters are significantly shorter than male catheters (6" vs 16") — because the female urethra is much shorter than the male urethra, female catheters only need to cover the female urethral passage. Using a male-length catheter for female catheterisation introduces excessive external catheter length to manage. Self-Cath is Coloplast's intermittent catheter product line — Coloplast lists Self-Cath catheters as PVC construction with smooth fire-polished eyelets (drainage holes are heat-finished to remove sharp edges that could traumatise the urethral mucosa during insertion or removal) and siliconized surface (a silicone-based lubrication treatment applied to the catheter surface for smoother insertion without requiring separate hydrophilic activation). Not made with natural rubber latex — safe for latex-allergic users. The without-connector format provides a compact catheter without the proximal funnel/connector that some users find unnecessary or prefer to omit for compact handling. 14Fr is a commonly used adult female calibre. 6" female length covers the female urethral passage. Single catheter format suits individual trial, replacement, or specific case-by-case use. Coloplast is a Danish-origin ostomy and continence care manufacturer with a long-standing position in intermittent catheter and continence product design.

Usage/Application

Ideal for female users who perform intermittent catheterization and have been directed to use a 14Fr, 6" straight-tip catheter without connector. Use only as instructed by a healthcare professional. Follow product instructions, proper hygiene practices, lubricant guidance if required, catheter handling, and safe disposal after use.
