ABSTRACT:
A urinary catheter including a tube with a co-extruded stripe, printed stripe or demarcation or series of marks to determine the alignment of a tip end of the catheter relative to the striped or marked portion of the catheter outside the body. The catheter can be a urethral catheter, such as a Coude-Tiemann curve tip catheter. This visible stripe or marks provide for manipulating passage of the catheter tip through obsructed or difficult urological pathways.
