Foley catheter procedure for female bladder drainage

This animation shows how a routine medical procedure facilitates direct drainage of a female's urinary bladder. A urinary catheter, also known as a Foley catheter, is a small, flexible tube that can be inserted through the urethra, a tube that carries urine from the bladder allowing urine to drain out of the body. Catheters may be inserted as an in-and-out procedure for immediate drainage, left in with a self-retaining device for short-term drainage (as during surgery), or left indwelling for long-term drainage in patients with chronic urinary retention. An indwelling Foley catheter remains in place continuously as shown in the video. It keeps the catheter from slipping out by having a balloon on one end that is inflated with sterile water after that end is inside the bladder.

A urinary catheter is inserted to empty the bladder or to instill medication Fully expose the urethral meatus Ask the patient to bear down, gently and slowly insert the catheter Advance the catheter until urine flows through the catheter Then advance it 2.5 to 5 centimeters further Slowly inflate the balloon and then seep the catheter by pulling back gently until resistance is felt
