Abstract:
A packaged closed intermittent urinary catheter system equipped with a dispensing system and method of dispensing a packaged catheter using the dispensing system. The dispensing system is a pair of separately translatable movement control devices, each operably engaging the catheter for permitting unidirectional movement of the catheter in a first axial direction relative to the movement control devices.

Claim (Index 1):
A closed intermittent urinary catheter system equipped with a catheter dispensing device, comprising:\n a) sterile flexible packaging defining a closed reservoir with an outlet opening; b) a catheter defining a longitudinal axis retained within the reservoir and having a distal insertion tip positioned adjacent to and aimed toward the outlet opening; c) a first movement control device mounted over the catheter proximally from the distal insertion tip and manually manipulable from outside and through the flexible packaging, the first movement control device having a locking member that moves to an unlocked position upon relative distal movement of the catheter therein to allow relative distal movement of the catheter, and moves to a locked position upon relative proximal movement of the catheter to prevent further relative proximal movement of the catheter; and d) a second movement control device mounted over the catheter between the distal insertion tip and the first movement control device and being manually manipulable from outside and through the flexible packaging, the second movement control device having a locking member that moves to an unlocked position upon relative distal movement of the catheter therein to allow relative distal movement of the catheter, and moves to a locked position upon relative proximal movement of the catheter to prevent further relative proximal movement of the catheter, wherein e) coordinated movement of the first and second movement control devices toward and away from one another causes the catheter to be advanced distally through the outlet opening.
