Description

Brand: B. Braun

Uro-Tainer® - Suby G is a specialized catheter irrigation solution designed to enhance the maintenance of indwelling urethral and suprapubic catheters. This sterile, ready-to-use solution is expertly formulated to dissolve and prevent encrustations, particularly those caused by phosphate crystallization and calcification. By maintaining catheter patency, it effectively reduces the risk of premature blockage, offering significant benefits for patients prone to such complications.

Key Features

• Mildly Hypotonic Solution: The addition of magnesium makes the solution less irritating, providing a gentle yet effective mechanical rinsing of urinary catheters.
• Clear and Colorless: With a pH level between 3.8 and 4.2, the solution is clear, colorless, and odorless, ensuring compatibility and comfort.
• Safe Composition: Composed of citric acid monohydrate, mild magnesium oxide, sodium bicarbonate, and edetate disodium dihydrate, it is miscible with water and poses no explosive or combustion risks.

Packaging

Uro-Tainer® - Suby G is available in 100 mL single-use, sterile, PVC-free bags equipped with a flexible tube and urologic closure. The completely closed system includes a slide clamp to prevent fluid release until connected, ensuring safe and convenient use. Additionally, the Uro-Tainer® Twin Suby G variant offers a two-chamber system with 2 x 30 mL per unit.

Instructions for Use

• Instillation Method: The solution is instilled into the catheter by gravity feed and should remain in the catheter for approximately 5 minutes.
• Recommended Frequency: Rinse frequency is advised at 2–3 times per week, or as prescribed, with a maximum of twice daily.
• Storage Conditions: Store at room temperature, avoiding refrigeration or freezing. Ensure the solution is clear and packaging is intact before use.
