LoFric Origo Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter is used for the purpose of intermittent catheterization, a technique for urine drainage from the bladder. It is designed for male use and is made of a hydrophilic material, which means that it becomes slippery when moistened and allows for easier insertion into the urethra. The LoFric Origo Hydrophilic Intermittent Catheter is intended to be used by healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, and urologists, in the care of patients with urinary incontinence or other bladder management needs. It is also intended to be used by patients or caregivers who are seeking products to assist with incontinence management. The catheter is intended to help manage bladder function and promote urethral health, and it may be used to prevent or treat certain urological disorders.
