Description
The HR Healthcare EZ-Advancer Closed System Intermittent Catheters never leave their collection bag until inside the patient, which removes the handling steps where contamination happens. This range covers the sizes, tips and kit formats of the no-touch format for users who catheterize at home, at work and on the move.
- Patented Advancement Valve – The EZ-Advancer valve secures the catheter tube after each forward advancement, preventing retraction into the bag during insertion.
- No-Touch Closed System – The catheter is self-contained within the collection bag, providing touchless use that protects the sterility of the catheter.
- Pre-Lubricated Introducer Tip – The soft silicone, pre-lubricated introducer tip helps bypass bacteria in the distal urethra to reduce the risk of urinary tract infection.
- Size Range – 10 Fr to 16 Fr across the configurations on this page.
- Manufacturer – Made by HR Healthcare in York, Pennsylvania.
Main Description
The EZ-Advancer Closed System gives care teams a grounded option from a manufacturer that builds complete catheter and ultrasound systems. Configurations on this page run 10 Fr to 16 Fr in 16 in and 10 in lengths. The introducer tip and the advancement valve are the working details, one guarding the urethra and the other keeping the catheter moving only forward. The closed format removes the separate collection bag decision, since the bag is part of the system itself. Stocking by the case keeps every size and kit format on the shelf, and the configuration list carries the full run of item numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this a closed system?
The catheter is contained inside its own collection bag from the factory, so it is advanced without being touched and drains straight into the bag. The system stays closed from package to disposal.
What French sizes are available?
French sizes run 10 Fr to 16 Fr, as listed for each configuration. Lengths and collection bag sizes are named on every option.
What collection bag sizes are offered?
Collection bags run 1500 ml and 700 ml, as listed per configuration. Larger bags suit bedside and longer wear, while the smaller formats suit travel and discretion.
Are the kits complete or catheter-only?
Kit formats vary by configuration and are named in each option, from catheter-only packages to full kits with gloves, underpad, gauze and cleansing supplies. Check the option text for the exact contents of the configuration you need.
How are the catheters packed?
They ship 100 per case and 20 per case, sold exactly as the manufacturer packs them. Case counts are stated on every configuration.
