How To Use Medline Red Rubber Latex Intermittent Catheter
- If you are not over a toilet, have a container ready to drain urine into
- Wash hands with soap and water
- Wash or use a wet wipe to cleanse the genitals, pulling the foreskin back and cleansing if uncircumcised
- For a hydrophilic coated catheter, soak the catheter according to the manufacturers instructions. For an uncoated catheter, apply lubrication jelly to the first 6 inches (15cm) of the catheter
- Choose a comfortable position (standing or sitting)
- Lift the penis gently upward and outward, and hold at about a 60 to 75-degree angle
- Slowly guide the lubricated catheter into the urethra without touching the part of the catheter that is entering the body
- Continue to slide the catheter slowly and smoothly until urine begins to flow; this will happen when about 6 to 8 inches of the catheter have been inserted
- Sometimes the catheter is hard to push just as it reaches the bladder. This is normal. Do not force the catheter. Use gentle, firm pressure on the catheter until it passes this point
- It can be helpful to bear down(as though passing a bowel movement) or cough to pass the catheter past this resistance point
- Relax and let the urine flow from your bladder into the toilet or container
- When urine stops flowing, slowly and gently remove the catheter. Note that additional urine may drain as you are taking out the catheter
- Wipe any remaining lubricant off your penis, and if you are uncircumcised, gently pull your foreskin back into position
- Dispose of the catheter and any packaging
- Wash hands with soap and water
