Meet Luja™ female.

A new standard in female intermittent catheters has arrived.

Luja™ female addresses more catheter-related UTI risk factors<sup>1</sup> than ever for less risk of UTIs<sup>1</sup>

Luja™ female addresses more catheter-related UTI risk factors¹ than ever for less risk of UTIs¹

We understand how important it is for you as a catheter user to avoid urinary tract infections (UTIs). Any urine left behind in the bladder after catheterization can contain bacteria that may multiply and could potentially cause a UTI^1,2.

That’s why Luja™ female has unique Micro-hole Zone Technology that enables complete bladder emptying in one free flow³ for less risk of UTIs¹.

micro holes

Micro-holes. Macro difference.

Unlike conventional catheters that usually only have two eyelets, Luja female has a zone of 50+ micro-holes⁴. Luja female with Micro-hole Zone Technology enables you to empty your bladder completely in one free flow³ – reducing your risk of contracting a UTI¹. Furthermore, in a recent study 86% of users reported feeling confident that Luja female empties their bladder completely⁵.

simpler emptying

Simpler emptying^3,6

With Luja female, your emptying technique is made simpler^3,6, as it enables you to empty your bladder without having to adjust the catheter³. In fact, 95% of users found it easy to use Luja female⁷.

No discomfort during catheterisation

No discomfort during catheterization

In a recent study, users indicated they experienced no discomfort⁸ during catheterization with Luja female. Furthermore, significantly fewer users feel pinching and stinging with Luja female compared to conventional eyelet catheters⁹.

Luja female is the new standard in female intermittent catheterization

Micro-embossed handle

Luja female is indicated for use by patients with urine retention and patients with a post void residual volume (PVR) due to neurogenic and non-neurogenic voiding dysfunction. The catheter is inserted into the urethra to reach the bladder allowing urine to drain. The product is indicated for female patients only (adults and children of and above the age of 2 years). Available by prescription only. Patients performing self-catheterization should follow the advice of, and direct questions about use of the product to, their medical professional. Apply with caution if the patient produces urine with many particles clearly distinguishable by the naked eye, as it may lead to transient urine retention. Before using the device, carefully read the product labels and information accompanying the device including the instructions for use which contain additional safety information. For single-use only; discard it after use. If you experience symptoms of a urinary tract infection, or are unable to pass the catheter into the bladder, contact your healthcare professional. The risk information provided here is not comprehensive. To learn more, talk to your healthcare provider.
