Urethral dilatation catheter, non-medicated

Urethral dilatation catheters are single-use medical devices designed to mechanically widen a narrowed or irregular urethra, improving urine flow in patients with strictures or blockages. They come in flexible or semi-flexible forms, often with tapered tips or inflatable balloons to navigate and dilate tight passages safely.

These devices are typically regulated as single-use medical devices, with classification and supply rules varying by jurisdiction. They are generally supplied sterile and intended for one-time clinical use, requiring proper disposal after use to prevent infection.
