Transforming Urinary Catheter Care
OUR TECHNOLOGY
InnoCare’s Egress™ Safety Catheter is a breakthrough in patient care as the first urinary safety catheter designed to automatically deflate if pulled out with the balloon inflated. The pulling force activates a secondary deflation mechanism, automatically deflating the balloon prior to forced removal. The device is FDA cleared under a new classification code for “Foley Catheters and Accessories with Additional Safety Features,” the first-ever device under this new code.
FDA ✓
The Egress™ Safety Catheter has been cleared by the FDA under a brand-new product classification code recognizing Foley Catheters and Accessories with Additional Safety Features (SCT).
