The S-Cath™ System has a unique patented design that incorporates the Seldinger technique to increase the safety of suprapubic catheterisation and reduce the number of procedures performed under general anaesthesia.
The S-Cath™ System by Mediplus features a patented design that employs the Seldinger technique, enhancing the safety of suprapubic catheterisation. This system reduces the need for general anaesthesia, making the procedure safer and more accessible.
Precise Placement: The use of a 3-stage guidewire ensures accurate catheter placement, significantly reducing the risks associated with blind insertion
3-Stage Guidewire: This innovative design offers healthcare professionals greater precision during the procedure, minimising the risk of trauma and tissue damage.
User Confidence: The system’s design simplifies the procedure, enhancing user confidence and reducing the complexity typically associated with suprapubic catheterisation.
Reduced Trauma: By incorporating the Seldinger technique, the S-Cath™ System minimises the risk of trauma and damage to surrounding tissues during insertion.
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.
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).
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.
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.
“The kit itself is robust and of good quality, and I would strongly recommend its use in all urology, gynaecology, A&E, as well as in all theatre suites.”
