PCT No. PCT/SE86/00191 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 3, 1986 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 3, 1986 PCT Filed Apr. 28, 1986 PCT Pub. No. WO86/06284 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 6, 1986.At intermittent self catheterization it is, for a wider use of the method, desirable to enable repeated use of a catheter, preferably a limited number of times. This applies also to surface coated catheters having low friction in wet condition (LoFric TM ). For this purpose the invention provides a wetting and storage device for a catheter, which device comprises an elongated carrying strip (1) provided with means for retaining a catheter. The device is characterized in that, along one side of said strip there is arranged a wetting pocket (2) closed at one end thereof in which a liquid (6) may be filled and in which a catheter (7) may be introduced for wetting thereof, and that on said strip there is further arranged at least one sheet (8,9,27) of porous material, under which a catheter may be put in for drying and storage. By providing the device with a number of tablets (5) (e.g. 3-6 tablets), of which one, according to an instruction, is to be dissolved in the liquid (6) at each occasion of use, one may induce a recommended number of use occasions for a catheter. |
