What Is the Foley Catheter Used For?
A Foley catheter is introduced through the urethra into the bladder and held in place by a small balloon near its tip, so that urine drains continuously into a collection bag. The two channels explain the "2-way" name: the central channel carries urine to the cup connector, while the side channel is used to inflate the balloon through its non-return Luer valve.
The listing gives handling notes: insert with strict aseptic technique, inflate the balloon with water or physiological saline, and, if lubrication is needed, use a substance that will not physically or chemically alter the catheter (sterile water if necessary). Because the catheter is made of natural latex with a silicone coating, state in your enquiry if your facility needs a latex-free alternative. Hospitals planning catheter stock as part of a scientific equipment bulk supply can order it with matching urine bags.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Size: CH18, 30–40 cm (state any other CH size you need)
- Quantity, as each catheter is single-use
- Matching urine bags and Luer syringes for balloon inflation, if required
- Confirmation that silicone-coated natural latex is acceptable for your facility
