A number of easy-to-manipulate sterile intermittent urinary catheters have loop-shaped handles attached to proximal funnels, or a sliding sleeve with a loop-shaped handle, or both. In one embodiment, the intermittent urinary catheter may be stored in an easy-to-tear sterile package with finger holes to facilitate grasping and tearing. Sliding sleeves with one-way locking features may also have easy-to-grasp handles.
