Evidence of lower friction and less epithelial cell damage with high osmolality associated with the LoFric catheter.
Histology study in rabbit.

The importance of osmolality in hydrophilic urethral catheters: a crossover study
Provides evidence that physiological osmolality of the hydrophilic catheter coating results in less sticking and lower withdrawal friction. For example, 3 incidents of sticking were observed in 2 patients among LoFric users while 42 incidents of sticking were observed in 9 patients among users of other hydrophilic catheter.
Cross-over study on LoFric and other hydrophilic catheter in 14 users.
