Rusch catheters are one of the most asked-for products at Active Life Medical Products. For this catheter brand, it’s not just about supporting bladder needs; it’s about helping the need for catheter users to have healthy and fulfilling lifestyles while cathing.
Below, we’ll take a closer look at the story behind Rusch catheters and why they are a top choice for Active Life Medical Product patients and their providers.
The History Of Rusch Catheters
Rusch is a line of the Teleflex Medical company, initially established in 1837 in the United Kingdom. Teleflex manufactures a variety of medical supplies but interestingly started with the invention and production of a simple cable and gear pulley system.
Over the years, as Teleflex sought to expand further into the medical industry, many acquisitions took place – Rusch catheters were the company’s first acquisition in 1989. Since then, various companies have joined the Teleflex family, including Mayo Healthcare, General Medical OEM, QuickClot, Urolift, LMA, and more.
One of Teleflex’s oldest brands, Rusch catheters and urology supplies are carefully and expertly designed to offer the best urological support. Next, we’ll look at the variety available in the Rusch catheter line and their beneficial differences.
