Silicone Male External Catheter – Available in Sizes 20mm to 41mm (25 Pcs)

Male external catheters, commonly known as condom catheters, are designed to manage urinary incontinence by covering the penis and directing urine into a collection bag. Selecting the appropriate size is crucial for comfort and to prevent issues such as leakage or constriction.

Available Sizes:

Male external catheters are typically available in the following sizes:

• Extra Small: 20mm to 21mm
• Small: 22mm to 25mm
• Medium: 26mm to 30mm
• Intermediate: 31mm to 34mm
• Large: 35mm to 39mm
• Extra Large: 40mm to 41mm

These sizes may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.

Sizing Methods:

1. Measuring Tape:

   • Measure the circumference of the flaccid penis at its widest part using a measuring tape.
   • Divide the circumference (in millimeters) by π (approximately 3.14) to obtain the diameter.
   • For example, a circumference of 112mm divided by 3.14 equals a diameter of approximately 35.7mm, suggesting a large size catheter.

2. 1. Measuring Stencil:

      • Use a star-shaped stencil with various diameter markings.
      • Place the stencil over the flaccid penis behind the glans.
      • The appropriately fitting crest indicates the suitable catheter size.

   If the measurement falls between two sizes, it is generally advisable to choose the smaller size, provided it is comfortable and does not cause constriction.

   Key Features:

   • Material: Typically made from silicone or latex; silicone is preferred for its hypoallergenic properties.
   • Adhesive: Some catheters have built-in adhesive, while others require separate adhesive strips or tapes.
   • Design: Varieties include one-piece systems and those with additional features like anti-kink bellows to prevent urine backflow.
