 How to Use Actreen Catheters Safely?

Proper use of Actreen catheters is essential to ensure both comfort and hygiene, while minimizing the risk of complications such as urinary tract infections (UTIs). Follow these steps to use Actreen catheters safely and effectively:

Step-by-Step Instructions for Safe Catheterization

1. Wash Your Hands
   Before handling the catheter, thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water to prevent contamination. You can also use hand sanitizers if soap and water are unavailable.

2. Prepare the Catheter
   Remove the Actreen catheter from its sterile packaging. Since Actreen catheters are pre-lubricated and ready-to-use, you do not need to apply additional lubricant.

3. Position Yourself
   Find a comfortable position to perform the catheterization. For females, a sitting position with legs apart works best. For males, standing up or sitting on the edge of a toilet may be most comfortable. Ensure that your clothing is out of the way to allow easy access to the catheter site.

4. Clean the Area
   Clean the genital area with a sterile wipe or warm, soapy water before insertion to reduce the risk of infection. For females, be sure to wipe from front to back.

5. Insert the Catheter
   Gently insert the catheter into the urethra. For women, the catheter should be inserted straight into the urinary opening. For men, guide the catheter along the natural curve of the urethra. The pre-lubricated surface will make this process smoother and more comfortable.

6. Drain the Urine
   Once the catheter is fully inserted, the urine will start to flow into the catheter. Allow the bladder to fully empty.

7. Remove the Catheter
   After the bladder is empty, gently remove the catheter while keeping it straight. Dispose of the catheter immediately in a safe, hygienic manner (Actreen catheters are single-use, so do not reuse them).

8. Wash Your Hands Again
   After disposing of the catheter, wash your hands thoroughly to avoid any bacteria transfer.

Best Practices to Prevent Infections

• Always use sterile equipment and avoid touching the catheter tip.

• Do not reuse a single-use catheter.

• Ensure proper storage of unused catheters, keeping them in a clean, dry area.

• Stay well-hydrated to promote regular urination and reduce the risk of infections.

Traveling with Actreen Catheters

Actreen catheters are designed for easy portability. Pack them in your bag for discreet use when traveling. Ensure that you have enough catheters for your trip and store them in a clean, dry place. The compact size makes it simple to carry them with you, whether you're at home or on the go.
