The Next Generation in Intermittent Catheterization

German engineering meets patient-centered innovation. The IQ Catheter's flexible atraumatic tip provides superior navigation for challenging anatomy.

~1,800

The average user of intermittent self-catheterization inserts a catheter approximately 1,800 times per year. The quality of the catheter plays a crucial role in preventing injuries and ensuring patient comfort.

The Challenge with Conventional Catheters

Rigid catheters: Easy to guide, but prone to injury
Flexible catheters: Gentle, but difficult to insert

Why IQ Catheter?

Engineered in Germany by Manfred Sauer, the IQ Catheter represents a breakthrough in intermittent catheterization technology.

The IQ Catheter features a unique patented design with a soft spherical head that acts as a pathfinder through the urethra, a highly bendable neck that navigates around strictures and anatomical curves, and polished smooth eyelets that minimize irritation during insertion and withdrawal.

Flexible Atraumatic Tip

The innovative flexible tip navigates anatomical variations with ease, making it ideal for patients with urethral strictures and false passages.

Superior Alternative to Coudé

Provides the directional guidance of a Coudé catheter with added flexibility, reducing trauma and improving patient comfort.

Reduced Insertion Trauma

Engineered to minimize urethral trauma during insertion, decreasing patient discomfort and reducing the risk of complications.

Enhanced Patient Safety

Designed with patient safety at the forefront, reducing the risk of false passage creation and urethral injury.

Ideal for Complex Cases

Urethral strictures and false passages
Post-surgical catheterization
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
Difficult anatomical variations

After trying several brands and types of catheters I settled on the IQ because it was the easiest and fastest to use. The IQ catheter made the transition very easy and now I am very satisfied with my bladder health and lifestyle.
