How to use Conveen Security Plus Catheter?
1. Flip open the pack using your thumbnail to break the seal.
2. Remove the catheter from the package and place it over the head of the penis. Leave a small space between the end of the penis and the narrow catheter outlet. Uncircumcised users should leave the foreskin in place over the head of the penis.
3. Pull the double grip strip to slowly unroll the catheter all the way up the length of the penis. The catheter should unroll smoothly and evenly.
4. Gently squeeze the catheter around the shaft of the penis (approx. 1 min.) to ensure a secure fit. To reduce the risk of skin irritation, allow the skin on the penis to breathe for short periods in between male external catheter changes.
5. Connect a urine collecting bag to the catheter by fully inserting the tubing.
