ASTRA TECH AB : LoFric Sense hydrophilic urinary catheter
Urotonic™ Surface Technology
LoFric® – the first hydrophilic urinary catheter – was introduced more than 25 years ago.
Being hydrophilic means that the catheter's surface layer has a special coating that binds water and creates a very wet and slippery surface, in principle frictionless during insertion.
Today there are several hydrophilic catheters on the market, but there are important differences between LoFric and the others. The secret behind LoFric is the Urotonic™ Surface Technology (UST).
Essentially, Urotonic™ Surface Technology binds water to the catheter tube. This creates a wet and slippery surface that reduces friction against the urethra by 90-95% compared to a regular catheter with gel.
This allows the catheter to slide in and out of the urethra in the most comfortable way possible. And, just as importantly, there's less risk of long-term complications from the repeated friction of self-catheterising.
Now on sale in CANADA.(NOT covered by Ontario Insurance plan).
