Why Choose GentleCath Straight Tip Catheter for Men 16" 100/Bx
This catheter is built for adult male users on a clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) routine who have been clinically directed to a straight tip catheter and need bulk resupply at the 100 ct case level — appropriate for home care users on stable CIC routines and facility supply at higher-volume usage. GentleCath is Convatec's intermittent catheter product line, available in multiple sub-variants (GentleCath uncoated PVC, GentleCath Glide hydrophilic, and others). Straight tip selection suits users without prostatic urethral resistance or anatomical variation that would require coudé navigation. The 16" male length covers the full male urethral path with sufficient external catheter length for clean drainage control. French size, lubrication status, and material must be confirmed on the specific SKU before publishing — GentleCath straight-tip 16" 100/Bx is available across multiple French sizes (10Fr, 12Fr, 14Fr, 16Fr, 18Fr), in non-lubricated and pre-lubricated lubrication formats, and in different material constructions (uncoated PVC standard; hydrophilic Glide variant in separate product line). Box of 100 supports approximately 3–4 weeks of supply at typical CIC frequency (4-6 catheterisations per day) — convenient for routine bulk resupply. Single-use sterile format supports the hygienic catheter routine that CIC protocols require. Convatec is a long-established US-origin medical supply manufacturer with a position in ostomy, continence, and wound care product design.
