The BARDEX� I.C. anti-infective latex Foley catheter is clinically proven to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Incorporating a technologically-advanced formulation consisting of Bactiguard�* silver alloy coating and BARD� hydrogel, the BARDEX� I.C. Foley catheter dramatically reduces bacterial adherence and minimizes biofilm formation.
The occurrence of urinary tract infection is 3.7 times greater in patients catheterized with a standard catheter than in patients catheterized with the BARDEX� I.C. Foley catheter with Bactiguard�* silver alloy coating and BARD� hydrogel.
Bardex IC Silver Coated Infection Control Foley Catheters 2-Way, manufactured by Bard, are specially designed infection control catheters (IC). Bard silver coated foley catheters are specifically designed to fight bacteria and infections with a dual approach of a silver coated latex and hydrogel. These Silver Coated Catheters are clinically proven to reduce the occurrence of catheter related UTI infections. Bardex IC silver foley catheters are recommended by the CDC (Center for Disease Control) to control catheter related UTI infections when other sterilization methods have proven ineffective.
These Silver Coated Catheters are latex catheters coated with a BACTI-GUARD silver alloy and lubricated with hydrogel. Infection Control Catheters reduce the need for antibiotics during catheterization.
