How do you use a catheter on a daily basis?

This article will cover the usage guide, product types, and detailed features of our catheters to help users better understand and utilize our products.

Here are the basic steps for using a catheter:

1. Preparation

Thoroughly wash hands, wear sterile gloves, prepare disinfectant, lubricant, and other necessary tools. Ensure that the catheter packaging is intact and within its expiration date.

2. Disinfection and Lubrication

Disinfect the area around the urethral opening to maintain a sterile environment. Apply an appropriate amount of sterile lubricant to the catheter to reduce discomfort during insertion.

3. Catheter Insertion  

Gently and slowly insert the catheter into the urethra until it reaches the proper position. For catheters with a balloon, inject a small amount of sterile water to inflate the balloon and secure the catheter in place.

4. Securing and Urine Drainage

Attach the catheter to the patient's leg or abdomen to prevent displacement. Connect to the urine collection bag and ensure the catheter is draining urine smoothly.

5. Catheter Removal  

After use, deflate the balloon, if present, and gently remove the catheter. Clean the urethral area after removal.
