The Nelaton catheter is a familiar simple at-hand device for health care staff, which is also used as a suction catheter in airway management.
Feature:
• Distal end for non traumatic introduction.
• Two perfectly heat polished lateral eyes for efficient drainage and smooth painless insertion.
• Funnel shape connectors are color coded for instant identification of sizes.
• Available with Male and Females types.
• Nelaton Catheter is designed for short term bladder catheterization
• The soft rounded tip of the catheter reduces urethral trauma as the catheter is passed.
Silicone coated catheters, including Nelaton catheters, are medical devices used for urinary catheterization. They are commonly used in healthcare settings for draining urine from the bladder when a patient is unable to urinate naturally. The silicone coating on the catheter provides a smooth and lubricated surface, making insertion and removal more comfortable for the patient and reducing the risk of damage to the urethra.
Design: Nelaton catheters are straight, flexible tubes typically made of medical-grade PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material. The catheter has a rounded or tapered tip for easier insertion into the urethra.
Silicone Coating: The Nelaton catheter is coated with a thin layer of silicone, which improves its lubricity and reduces friction during insertion and removal. The silicone coating helps the catheter glide smoothly through the urethra, enhancing patient comfort and minimizing trauma.
Sizes: Nelaton catheters come in various sizes to accommodate different patient needs. The appropriate size is selected based on factors such as age, gender, and medical condition.
Sterility: Silicone coated Nelaton catheters are typically packaged in a sterile manner to minimize the risk of infection. It is essential to maintain proper aseptic techniques during catheter insertion and handling to prevent contamination.
Single-Use: Nelaton catheters are designed for single-use and should be disposed of after each use. This helps prevent infection and ensures the highest level of patient safety.
It is crucial for healthcare professionals to follow proper guidelines for catheter insertion and care to minimize the risk of complications and maintain patient comfort. Additionally, patients should be educated on proper hygiene practices when using a catheter to prevent urinary tract infections and other complications.

What is the difference between Foley and Nelaton catheter?
Intermittent catheters – also called Nelaton or “in/out” catheters are inserted into the bladder temporarily to allow it to empty and are then removed. Indwelling catheters - also called Foley catheters. These are designed to remain in the bladder continuously for longer periods of time.
What is Nelaton catheter made of?
Amecath Nelaton catheters are made of medical grade PVC,. non-toxic, non-irritant. Proximal end is fitted with funnel shaped connector for safe connection to urine bag. Rounded, closed tip with two lateral eyes for efficient drainage.
