SUPRAPUBIC CATHETER SET 12 FR. WITH BALLOON
This sterile Suprapubic Catheter Set, 12 French (FR) with Balloon, is a specialized medical device designed for safe and efficient long-term bladder drainage.
It provides an alternative to urethral catheterization for patients requiring extended urinary management.
The catheter is inserted through a small incision in the lower abdomen directly into the bladder, bypassing the urethra.
Each set is designed for single-use to ensure sterility and reduce the risk of infection.
Benefits of Use:
- Reduces the risk of urethral trauma and associated complications.
- May improve patient comfort and quality of life for long-term users.
- Facilitates easier hygiene and allows for greater mobility compared to urethral catheters.
- Permits sexual activity for patients with chronic bladder drainage needs.
- Minimizes the risk of urethral strictures and epididymitis.
How to Use:
This device must be inserted by a trained healthcare professional under strict aseptic technique.
1. Ensure the patient is in a comfortable position and the suprapubic area is prepped with an antiseptic solution.
2. Administer local anesthetic to the insertion site as per clinical guidelines.
3. Using appropriate technique (e.g., Seldinger technique or direct trocar insertion), create a small incision and establish a tract into the bladder.
4. Insert the 12 FR suprapubic catheter through the established tract until the balloon is confirmed to be inside the bladder.
5. Inflate the balloon with sterile water (volume specified on the catheter hub) to secure the catheter in place.
6. Connect the catheter to a sterile urine drainage bag.
7. Secure the catheter to the abdominal skin with appropriate dressing or securement device to prevent dislodgement and tension.
Caution & Warnings:
- For single-patient use only. Do not re-sterilize or reuse.
- Sterile unless the package is opened or damaged. Inspect package integrity before use.
- Insertion must be performed by a qualified healthcare professional.
- Monitor the insertion site for signs of infection (redness, swelling, discharge), leakage, or discomfort.
- Regular irrigation may be required to maintain patency and prevent blockages.
- Patients should be educated on proper catheter care and hygiene.
- Seek immediate medical attention if fever, severe pain, or difficulty with drainage occurs.
- The balloon must be fully deflated before catheter removal to prevent trauma.
