Medline Silicone Coated Foley Catheter 2-Way Size 14Fr 10 cc

Why Choose Medline Silicone Coated Foley Catheter 2-Way Size 14Fr 10cc

This catheter is built for routine indwelling urinary drainage when a clinician has directed a 14Fr 2-way Foley with a 10cc retention balloon and a silicone-coated shaft. The silicone coating sits over a latex base — providing the lubricity, encrustation resistance, and reduced urethral mucosa contact of silicone surface chemistry while retaining the manufacturing economics of latex construction. This contrasts with 100% silicone catheters (which eliminate latex entirely and are required for latex-allergic patients) — confirm latex status on the SKU and against the user's allergy profile before use. The 2-way design uses one lumen for urine drainage and a separate lumen for balloon inflation. The 14Fr French size is the most commonly used adult indwelling calibre. The 10cc balloon is the standard routine retention balloon volume. Confirm sterile packaging on the SKU before publishing. Medline is a large US-origin medical supply manufacturer with a long-standing position in catheter and drainage system design.

Key Features

✔ Medline indwelling Foley urinary catheter

✔ Construction: Silicone-coated latex shaft (confirm latex status on SKU)

✔ Catheter size: 14Fr — common adult indwelling calibre

✔ Balloon size: 10cc / 10 ml (verify inflation volume against clinical protocol)

✔ Design: 2-way (drainage lumen + balloon inflation lumen)

✔ Standard tip design with smooth drainage eyes

✔ Silicone coating for reduced insertion friction and encrustation resistance

✔ Retention balloon system for bladder anchoring

✔ Drainage lumen and balloon inflation lumen integrated in shaft

✔ Sterile format — confirm by SKU

✔ Useful for clinical care, facility care, and caregiver-assisted routines under professional direction

Benefits

✔ 2-way Foley design supports continuous indwelling urinary drainage with bladder retention via inflated balloon

✔ Silicone coating provides lubricity, encrustation resistance, and reduced urethral mucosa contact at the catheter surface

✔ Silicone-coated latex offers a middle-cost position between uncoated latex and 100% silicone construction

✔ 10cc balloon anchors the catheter in the bladder for routine drainage scenarios — prevents dislodgement during patient movement

✔ 14Fr calibre supports clinically reasonable drainage flow at a commonly used adult size

✔ Smooth drainage eyes admit urine into the catheter lumen

✔ Useful for post-surgical recovery, acute retention, ICU, ward, hospice, and long-term care indwelling drainage scenarios

✔ Suitable for routine Foley catheter supply when matched to the user's care plan

Clinical & Typical Applications

✔ Post-surgical and post-procedural indwelling urinary drainage in clinical settings

✔ Acute urinary retention requiring continuous bladder drainage

✔ ICU, ward, hospice, and long-term care indwelling Foley management

✔ Routine 2-way Foley scenarios — not for continuous bladder irrigation (3-way Foley required)

✔ Standard adult catheterisation at 14Fr calibre

✔ NOT suitable for confirmed latex-allergic patients — silicone-coated latex still contains latex (use 100% silicone alternatives)

✔ Clinical and facility supply for routine Foley resupply

Usage/Application

Ideal for users who require an indwelling Foley catheter for urinary drainage and have been directed to use a 14Fr, 10cc, 2-way silicone coated catheter. Use only under healthcare professional direction. Follow proper catheter insertion, securement, drainage bag connection, hygiene, monitoring, and replacement guidance.
