The BARDEX IC anti-infective latex Foley catheter dramatically reduces bacterial adherence and minimizes biofilm formation due to the incorporation of a technologically advanced formulation which consists of a BACTI-GUARD silver alloy coating and BARD hydrogel. The BARDEX IC anti-infective latex Foley catheter is clinically proven to reduce urinary tract infections associated with catheters. Patients who have been catheterized with a standard catheter rather than a BARDEX IC anti-infective latex Foley catheter with a BACTI-GUARD silver alloy coating and BARD hydrogel have a 3.7 times greater risk of contracting a urinary tract infection.
