  1. Le rôle du microbiote urinaire

    key:global.content-type: Publication en vedette

    La vision traditionnelle de la stérilité urinaire a été remise en question par la découverte du microbiome urinaire, c’est-à-dire un mélange de bactéries et de micro-organismes dans les voies urinaires. Cette relation unique entre les microbes et les humains n’est pas encore entièrement comprise, mais a attiré beaucoup d’attention dans la recherche clinique au cours de la dernière décennie.

  2. Facteurs de risque d’infection récurrente des voies urinaires chez les enfants

    key:global.content-type: Article

    Les infections urinaires récurrentes chez les enfants atteints de vessie neurogène constituent un risque élevé d’entraîner de graves lésions rénales et doivent faire l’objet d’une attention particulière. Cette étude est utile pour déterminer les traitements et les mesures proactives pour prévenir les infections urinaires récurrentes.

  3. Hyperplasie bénigne de la prostate

    key:global.content-type: Article

    L’hyperplasie bénigne de la prostate (HBP) est l’un des principaux diagnostics chez les hommes. Environ 100 000 hommes sont traités par chirurgie transurétrale de la prostate (RTUP) chaque année, ce qui en fait l’une des interventions chirurgicales les plus courantes aux États-Unis et dans plusieurs autres pays.

  4. Scientific Review of catheter associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI)

    key:global.content-type: Article

    Catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) are common in the hospital setting with consequential morbidity and mortality. The risk of bacterial adhesion and invasion of the urinary tract increases with use of an indwelling catheterization and may be reduced by adopting intermittent catheterization using hydrophilic single-use catheters.

  5. Scientific Review of reuse vs single-use catheters

    key:global.content-type: Article

    A surprisingly high number of patients reuses catheters intended for single-use every day putting them at risk for unnecessary complications. Single-use hydrophilic catheters for intermittent catheterization lower the risk for short- and long-term complications and are a convenient and preferred choice for many patients.

  6. Scientific Review of intermittent vs indwelling catheterization

    key:global.content-type: Article

    Available clinical evidence supports the strategy to always consider intermittent catheterization as the first therapeutic choice, before considering the use of an indwelling catheter. Intermittent catheterization is the first therapeutic choice and is a safer bladder management method than both urethral and suprapubic indwelling catheters. Intermittent catheterization is central to reduce morbidity related to renal failure and neurogenic bladder dysfunction.

  7. LoFric - a well-documented catheter

    key:global.content-type: Article

    With more than 30 years on the market, LoFric has been used and documented in several ways. In addition to efficiently emptying the bladder, LoFric’s versatile use includes treatment and prevention of recurrent strictures, administration of chemotherapy by bladder instillation, and resolution of rare complications.

  8. LoFric - as little environmental impact as possible

    key:global.content-type: Article

    At Wellspect HealthCare we take our environmental responsibility seriously. We continuously work to minimize the environmental impact related to our products. We ensure that proper materials are used and all applicable production requirements are followed.

  9. Instillation therapy with LoFric

    key:global.content-type: Article

    Bladder instillation is used for local administration of drugs into the bladder. This is used for treatment of interstitial cystitis and cancer, for example. Drugs are being delivered by catheters and a hydrophilic-coated surface such as that of the LoFric catheters reduces the risk for trauma associated with instillation therapy.

  10. Dilatation and stricture treatment

    key:global.content-type: Article

    A urethral stricture is an abnormal narrowing of the urethra and is often caused by trauma or inflammation.
