The S-Cath™ System L is designed for patients with increased tissue depth, maintaining the familiar procedural approach clinicians already know and trust, while providing longer components to support treatment when additional reach is required.
S-Cath™ L is the longer-length version of the trusted S-Cath™ System, offering increased instrument reach while maintaining the same intuitive insertion technique and system benefits. It provides all the components required to employ the Seldinger technique for guided suprapubic catheter placement, supporting accurate positioning and enhanced procedural safety
Extended 3-Stage Guidewire: 3.8cm longer than the standard S-Cath™ system, the S-Cath™ L guidewire provides additional reach when required. The use of a 3-stage guidewire ensures accurate catheter placement, significantly reducing the risks associated with SPC placement compared with blind trocar insertion techniques
The S-Cath™ L ensures clinicians are prepared for a wider range of patient presentations and remain confident in the safe and accurate suprapubic catheter placement
Reduced Trauma: By incorporating the Seldinger technique, the S-Cath™ System minimises the risk of trauma and damage to surrounding tissues during insertion.
Local Anaesthesia: Use of the S-Cath™ System reduces the need for general anaesthesia, making the procedure safer and more accessible.
Outpatient Procedure: Suprapubic catheterisation with the S-Cath™ System can be performed in an outpatient setting, leading to significant cost and time savings for hospitals.
The S-Cath™ System L is provided as a sterile, cost-effective kit that includes a needle that is 200mm long, a 270mm trocar, with a guidewire 463mm long, a sheath dilator, 16Fr silicone Foley catheter, scalpel, and two syringes.
Industry Recognition: Recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and the British Association of Urological Surgeons (BAUS), the S-Cath™ System was also awarded the Queen’s Award for Innovation in 2017.
Developed with Clinicians: The S-Cath™ System L has been designed to address real-world procedural challenges, providing additional reach required for a broader range of patient presentations
