1. Nelaton Catheter:
- A Nelaton catheter is a straight, flexible urinary catheter with a rounded and tapered tip. It is commonly used for short-term catheterization, often for intermittent self-catheterization or by healthcare professionals to drain urine from the bladder.
2. 220 / 400mm:
- These dimensions likely refer to the length of the catheter. It appears to be available in two different lengths—220mm and 400mm. The length chosen depends on factors such as patient anatomy and the specific medical situation.
3. Silicone Coated:
- The catheter is coated with silicone. Silicone coating is used to enhance flexibility, reduce friction during insertion, and make the catheterization process more comfortable for the patient.
4. Normal Eyes:
- "Normal eyes" likely refers to the drainage eyes or openings on the catheter. In this context, it means that the catheter has standard drainage openings for the urine to pass through.
In summary, the Nelaton catheter with specific dimensions (220mm and 400mm), a silicone coating for increased flexibility and comfort during insertion, and normal drainage eyes for effective urine drainage. If you or someone you know requires the use of such a catheter, it's important to follow the guidance of healthcare professionals for proper usage and care.
