What Is the Urethral (Nelaton) Catheter Used For?
Unlike a Foley catheter, a Nelaton catheter has no balloon and is not retained in the bladder: it is passed in, used to drain urine and then removed, which is why it is listed for short-term catheterisation. The closed, rounded tip is designed to be atraumatic, while the two lateral eyes let urine enter the catheter.
The instructions for use call for strict aseptic technique; if lubrication is needed, the substance must not physically or chemically alter the catheter, and sterile water can be used. The cup connector joins a urine bag when the drained volume needs to be collected and measured. Hospitals that stock disposable lab equipment in India for their wards often keep this CH14 catheter next to a Foley catheter for longer-term drainage.
