devices for Critical Care, Urology and Surgery, will showcase its
advanced bladder management product lines at the 47th ICS (Annual
Meeting of the International Continence Society) in Florence, Italy, on

the industry. Its products address the needs of acute and home care
settings and help to reduce the risk of nosocomial urinary tract
infections. Throughout the event, Teleflex will present its more
advanced intermittent catheter systems.

Faster –Simpler – Safer: The Liquick X-treme® System Sets New
Standards in Self-Catheterisation
X-treme Speed:
The Liquick X-treme® System is ready to use out of
the packaging as the hydrophilic coated catheter is pre-activated. This
makes the catheterisation user-friendly and as quick, easy and
convenient as possible, whether at home or out and about.
X-treme Comfort:
A simple non-touch insertion is guaranteed. The
convenient packaging has an attractive modern design containing the
ready-to-use SafetyCat® Safety Catheter, and is easy to open, even with
limited manual dexterity due to the closing flap with finger hole.
Equipped with a blue introduction aid and a sterile protective inner
sleeve, which covers the complete surface of the catheter, the Liquick
X-treme® System allows a highly comfortable, quick and completely
non-touch catheterisation. All that you have to do is open, remove and
insert.
X-treme Safety:
The Liquick X-treme® System delivers high quality
standards for reliable safety. It features the SafetyCat® Safety
Catheter which has been made in Germany for 30 years and used by
millions of people worldwide. A gentle and smooth catheterisation is
ensured due to its softly rounded Soft Cat Eyes, the flexible Ergothan
tip and the new pre-activated hydrophilic coating.
Based on advanced technology and high quality standards, Teleflex
provides first class urological products focused on the needs of our
users. The home care range from Teleflex also includes gel-based
catheter systems and a wide selection of additional medical aids that
provide a reliable and gentle urinary diversion.
Teleflex continuously strives to find optimal solutions to make
intermittent self-catheterisation as safe, discreet and simple as can be.
The Liquick X-treme® System will be available in Germany from September
19, 2017.
