Astra Tech’s LoFricÒ Hydro-Kit™ II catheter is suitable for people with spinal injuries.  LoFricÒ Hydro-Kit™ II is a small, flexible and discreet catheter kit that comes folded. Patients can use LoFricÒ Hydro-Kit™ II anywhere, which gives them freedom.

LoFricÒ Hydro-Kit™ II includes a 1000ml urine collection bag, suitable for day and night time use and an integrated water sachet, so there is no need to worry about the availability or quality of water.

Astra Tech received a British Healthcare Trades Association award for its LoFricÒ Hydro-Kit™ II.  This award recognises innovative products that assist independent living.

Astra Tech also supports the Spinal Injuries Association (SIA) and worked with the organisation to produce a guide to bladder management after spinal cord injury.  Following a spinal cord injury, a loss of control and function of the bladder may occur.  To prevent serious complications, it is essential for people to have a good understanding of their bladder function. Rachael Chapple, Product Manager for the Urology Division of Astra Tech, says: “Astra Tech is committed to making catheterisation as easy and stress free as possible for people with spinal injuries.”
