Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the primary advantage of a temperature-sensing catheter?
A: It allows for continuous and highly accurate monitoring of core body temperature directly from the bladder, which is critical during surgery and intensive care.
Q2: Why is silicone preferred over latex for these catheters?
A: 100% silicone is biocompatible, reduces the risk of tissue irritation, and is safe for patients with latex allergies. It also has a wider drainage lumen.
Q3: How is the temperature data transmitted to the monitor?
A: The catheter features an integrated wire and connector port that provides a moisture-resistant, sealed connection to standard patient monitoring equipment.
Q4: Are these catheters suitable for pediatric use?
A: Yes, we provide sizes starting from 8 FR/CH and 10 FR/CH specifically designed for pediatric requirements.
Q5: Can this catheter be used for long-term applications?
A: Yes, medical-grade silicone is suitable for long-term use, helping to reduce the frequency of catheter changes and associated costs.
Q6: What certifications does the product hold?
A: The product is fully compliant with international standards, holding CE, ISO 13485, and FDA certifications.
