The growing prevalence of urological conditions in pediatric population has led to an increased demand for pediatric catheters globally. Pediatric urological disorders are highly prevalent worldwide, with undescended testicles, hydrocele, hypospadias, and urinary tract infections (UTIs) among the most common conditions. Further, through various studies it was noted that girls and younger patients under the age of two may have the highest prevalence of UTIs.
 

This high prevalence of UTIs in girls is due to bacteria Escherichia coli, causing the disease to approximately 80% of pediatric population. Thus, owing to the widespread prevalence of such disorders among children globally, there is an increasing need for pediatric urological care, thereby, boosting the product demand.
