We describe a newly developed suprapubic catheterization set with a defined
sigmoidal, geometrically and functionally tripartite tip and grooved troca
r shaft. The device was designed to enhance the handling and safety feature
s of the current commercially available sets to promote the broader applica
tion of suprapubic catheterization. UROLOGY 56: 315-316, 2000. (C) 2000, El
