We have a wide range of accessories available for patients new to catheterization. If you currently prescribe LoFric, please call us to order these free accessories for your facility.
LOFRIC® HANDLE
The slippery outer layer created when LoFric comes into contact with water is what makes it so easy and comfortable to insert. However, some people find it helpful to use a handle to insert the LoFric catheter. The LoFric handle makes intermittent catheterization easier for users with reduced dexterity. It enables users to hold the catheter firmly and direct it into the correct position. The LoFric handle fits catheter sizes 6–18FR.
The LoFric handle is robustly designed, made of polypropylene plastic with a spring made from stainless steel. To maintain the scrupulous cleanliness required for intermittent catheterization, the LoFric handle can be boiled in water or cleaned in an alcohol-based solution.
LOFRIC® MIRROR
Successful intermittent catheterization depends on being able to insert the catheter smoothly into the urethra. For female users, locating the urethra may not always be easy. Although many users do learn to find the urethra reliably by ‘feel’, others find it more convenient to use a mirror. The LoFric mirror is specially designed for this purpose. The angle of the mirror is adjustable which makes it easier to see the urethral opening.
The LoFric mirror can be folded away and slipped discreetly into a purse or pocket, ready for use.
LOFRIC® CLIP
For those who use our LoFric Cath-Kit and Ready-Kit products, and have reduced dexterity, tying a knot to close the neck of the top of the urine collection bag may not be easy to do. This clip is perfect as an alternative. After hydrating the catheter, simply hold the bag upright, place the neck of the bag in between the opened clip, then close the clip shut and it's ready to go.
This clip comes in adult and pediatric sizes, and is small for discreetly carrying into a purse or pocket.
