A urinary catheter is a partially flexible and hollow tube that collects urine from the bladder and leads to a drainage bag. Silicone, rubber, and poly vinyl chloride (PVC) are materials used to manufacture urinary catheters. Indwelling catheters, external catheters, and intermittent catheters (short-term catheters) are the three main types of urinary catheters. One-time-use catheters and reusable catheters are also available. It is important to routinely clean catheters as indwelling urinary catheters may lead to healthcare-associated Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs). Urinary catheters are used at the time of urinary incontinence and retention, which can occur due to kidney stones, blood clots in urine, and enlargement of the prostate gland, spinal cord injury, dementia, etc. Urinary catheters are the leading cause of Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), hence it is important to clean catheters to prevent infections. Urethra or bladder injuries, bladder stones, bladder spasms, and pain are the most common side effects associated with urinary catheters.
