Uridom (Condom Catheter)

Purpose & Use

• A condom catheter is a non-invasive urinary catheter designed for male patients who have urinary incontinence but do not require bladder drainage via an indwelling catheter.

• Commonly used in hospitals, nursing care, and home care settings.

• Provides a comfortable, safe way to collect urine without the risks associated with invasive catheters.

Material & Properties

• Made from soft, medical-grade latex or silicone to fit over the penis.

• Flexible, breathable, and hypoallergenic materials reduce skin irritation and risk of pressure sores.

• Adhesive or self-adhesive variants keep the catheter securely in place.

Sizes & Fit

• Available in various sizes to accommodate different penile circumferences.

• Correct sizing is critical to:

  • Prevent leakage.

  • Avoid constriction and impaired blood flow.

• Sizes are typically small, medium, large, and extra-large, sometimes with specific measurements in millimeters.

Design & Components

• Catheter sheath: covers the penis and collects urine.

• Flexible tubing: connects to a urine collection bag (leg bag or bedside bag).

• Some models have anti-reflux valves to prevent backflow into the urinary tract.

• Disposable, single-patient use reduces infection risk.

Advantages

• Non-invasive alternative to urethral catheters.

• Reduces the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) compared to indwelling catheters.

• Comfortable for long-term wear if used correctly.

• Easy to apply and remove, suitable for home or hospital care.
