SpeediCath Compact Eve

Bladder problems are an everyday concern for many people. The use of intermittent self-catheterisation (ISC) allows sufferers to lead an independent life without limitations. The bladder thus regularly empties itself by means of a single-use catheter. SpeediCath Compact Eve is such a catheter specifically designed for women, which meets their needs with great sensitivity. Its design takes its inspiration from cosmetic products. It therefore looks less like a medical device and more like a mascara bottle or a concealer that one would have in one’s handbag; an impression which is reinforced by the turquoise tube used to transport it. The catheter is triangular, offers good ergonomic grip and stable placement. It is also easy and intuitive to use, simple to open and a secure cover ensures that it stays sterile. Once the device is opened, the integrated urine bag becomes visible. After use, the catheter is easily sealed, thus guaranteeing hygienic and discrete disposal. The bold design ensures that this single-use catheter takes the drama out of a sensitive medical problem and clearly demonstrates that design can contribute to a positive attitude towards life.
