simPRO Catheters & Medical Supplies

For anyone managing intermittent self-catheterization, the details that seem small on paper matter enormously in daily life: how easily the catheter slides, whether the coating stays hydrated, and whether the whole process can be done cleanly with limited hand mobility or on the go. The Wellspect Healthcare simPRO line is built around exactly these realities, pairing hydrophilic-coated PVC catheters with an all-in-one design that keeps handling simple and infection risk low.

The simPRO Now urethral catheters are ready-to-use hydrophilic catheters that arrive pre-hydrated, so there's no waiting to soak or activate the coating before insertion. The female 8-inch, 14 Fr. straight-tip version (green, sterile, single-use) offers a smooth, low-friction glide that helps protect the urethra during routine draining. For users who want everything contained in one sterile package, the simPRO intermittent catheter trays combine a 16-inch, 14 Fr. male hydrophilic catheter with an integrated urine collection bag—useful when a toilet isn't within reach and discretion is a priority.

A common question is how these compare to standard uncoated catheters: the hydrophilic coating reduces friction significantly, which studies associate with greater comfort and lower risk of urethral trauma over long-term use. French sizing (Fr.) simply indicates outer diameter, and 14 Fr. is a widely used adult size—though the right size and length depend on your clinician's guidance and personal anatomy.

The collection also includes the simPRO pediatric fingertip pulse oximeter, a compact blue-display device with auto power-off, designed for smaller fingers and quick spot-checks of oxygen saturation at home.
