The traditional view of urine sterility has been challenged by the discovery of the urinary microbiome, meaning a mix of bacteria and microorganisms within the urinary tract. This unique relationship between microbes and humans is still not fully understood but has gained a lot of attention in clinical research in the last decade.

At Wellspect HealthCare we take our environmental responsibility seriously. We continuously work to minimize the environmental impact related to our products. We ensure that proper materials are used and all applicable production requirements are followed. For the LoFric catheter, this means that we use a core catheter material with proven low environmental impact as compared to other common catheter materials1 without compromising quality and patient perception.2 3 In fact, the core material of LoFric has been proven to optimize catheter management and reduce discomfort.2

Ren Intermittent kateterisering (RIK) är den rekomenderade behandlingen vid blåstömningsproblem, men det finns en viss ökad risk för urinvägsinfektioner (UVI) jämfört med att tömma blåsa på naturlig väg. För att undvika att få UVI finns det speciella faktorer att tänka på när man väljer kateter, och alla katetrar är inte likadana.

Urinvägsinfektioner är komplexa och involverar flera processer samt många olika riskfaktorer. Den mest vanliga bakterien som orsakar UVI är i cirka 90% av fallen Escherichia coli (E. coli). Den här animeringen visar steg för steg hur en UVI uppstår.

Prolaps betyder "att falla ur sin plats". Bäckenorganprolaps uppstår när vaginala väggar, livmoder eller båda förlorar sitt normala stöd och faller ur sin plats. Andra närliggande bäckenorgan, såsom urinblåsan eller tarmen, kan vara påverkade och även "släppa" från sin normala position i kroppen. Cystocele är den vanligaste typen av bäckenorganprolaps.

Bladder instillation is used for local administration of drugs into the bladder. This is used for treatment of interstitial cystitis and cancer, for example. Drugs are being delivered by catheters and a hydrophilic-coated surface such as that of the LoFric catheters reduces the risk for trauma associated with instillation therapy.

Patient adherence plays a key role in a successful and cost-effective catheterization treatment. A patient who feels part of the decision-making, in control of his options and how they work with his lifestyle is more inclined to stick with his therapy and subsequently experience a good clinical outcome.

Urine often has a high concentration of particles and low content of water. This is referred to as high osmolality. Urine osmolality has a direct effect on catheter lubrication and plays an important role for people who use hydrophilic catheters. Catheters with a surface osmolality in balance with urine is key to reducing withdrawal friction.
key:global.content-type: Artiklar
A lubricated catheter is recommended to reduce damage to the urethra and lower the risk of hematuria which is a common complication. A cross-over study comparing different hydrophilic catheters showed an even lower frequency of hematuria in patients who chose LoFric.
key:global.content-type: Artiklar
Extensive studies support scientific literature claiming that use of hydrophilic catheters reduce urethral trauma and urinary tract infections. This in turn can minimize the need for antibiotics. Because of these benefits, we now know that hydrophilic catheters are one of the most cost-effective ways to prevent long term urological complications in general and UTI in particular.

Single-use hydrophilic catheters were developed in the early eighties to address long-term complications of intermittent catheterization as seen when reusing plastic catheters with add-on lubrication.
