DOUBLE-LUMEN CYSTOMETRY CATHETER
FEATURES:
-
Allow catheterization of the patient with simultaneous bladder filling and pressure measurement
-
Feature asymmetrical lumens, with the filling lumen larger than the pressure measurement lumen
-
Designed so that only 30% of the cross-sectional area is dedicated to bladder pressure measurement, while 70% is dedicated to filling, this enables effective bladder filling at an appropriate rate using a smaller-diameter catheter. For example, to achieve a maximum filling rate over 100 ml/min, an 8Ch or 10Ch catheter is sufficient
-
Enables more accurate pressure measurement during voiding
-
Provides greater ease and comfort for the patient
-
Includes extension lines of sufficient length, reaching from the patient to the urodynamic device
- Eliminates the need to purchase separate extension lines
- Reduces the number of unnecessary connections, each of which is a potential site for micro air bubble formation that can impact pressure measurement accuracy
