As the name suggests, the pocket catheter is compact enough to fit in your pocket. Pocket portable catheters usually refer to intermittent catheters serving the same purpose as any regular catheter. Changing a catheter in public or carrying one everywhere seems difficult and even embarrassing for some. Pocket catheters are the perfect fix for them. They are packed in small packages, making them compact and discreet. Intermittent travel catheters can be carried around in a pocket, a purse, a briefcase, a backpack, or a makeup bag. Interestingly, some catheters are ultra-compact, and you can hide them in the palm of your hand.

The most important feature to consider is the length of the tube. Typically, standard intermittent catheters come in various lengths depending upon the user’s needs. Male catheters are generally around 16 inches long, female catheters are about 6 inches long, and pediatric catheters for children are around 10 inches long. Pocket catheters either come in standard length or are shorter than the standard size. Before buying a pocket catheter, consult your healthcare provider to help you get the one that meets your specific needs.
A catheter with a hydrophilic coating does not require the application of lubricating jelly, which eliminates the need to touch the catheter tube, reducing the possibility of germs contaminating the urethra. If you experience pain or difficulty during insertion, it is good to try a hydrophilic catheter.
The compact catheters come with a straight tip or Coude tip. Coude tip catheter has a slight bend or angle to the tip that allows the catheter to easily glide past blockages, tight spots, or enlarged prostates to empty the bladder. If you cannot use a straight tip catheter or experience pain, you may try a coude tip catheter.
