Needlestick injuries and bloodborne pathogen exposure from most devices are treated as unacceptable. Open-system manual bladder irrigation is still widely done the same way it has been for decades — even though it can mean splashing, spraying, and cleanup of bloody urine.
Two physicians decided that gap was worth fixing.
They designed the Multiphze Enclosed Bladder Irrigation System as a closed, OSHA-aligned option for hematuria management. The catheter stays connected while the clinician fills, irrigates, and drains. Less exposure. Less mess. A tighter, cleaner workflow.
A University of California Irvine animal study found irrigation time was cut by about 50%, with no measurable spillage compared with conventional methods.
If your team still treats clot evacuation like an open procedure, it may be time to revisit the standard.
