Unique Patented Design

3-Stage Guidewire: This innovative design offers healthcare professionals greater precision during the procedure, minimising the risk of trauma and tissue damage.

Ease of Use

User Confidence: The system’s design simplifies the procedure, enhancing user confidence and reducing the complexity typically associated with suprapubic catheterisation.

Minimises Risk

Reduced Trauma: By incorporating the Seldinger technique, the S-Cath™ System minimises the risk of trauma and damage to surrounding tissues during insertion.

Cost Savings

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.

Convenience

Complete Kit: The system is supplied as a sterile, cost-effective kit that includes a needle, guidewire, sheath dilator, silicone Foley catheter, scalpel, and two syringes​)​.

Universal Application

Versatility: Suitable for adults and children of both genders, the system comes in a range of sizes (8Fr to 16Fr) with options for open or closed tip catheters.

Recommended and Award-Winning

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.
