Sterile technique is used to help prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs), the most common complication associated with urinary catheter use. Insertion of a Foley should not be painful; nor is it painful to have one in place. Some patients describe having a Foley in place as a mild irritation.
Removal of an indwelling foley catheter is a lot easier than inserting one. All you need to do is to aspirate 10 cc of the saline solution from the injection port. This will loosen the anchorage and make it ready for removal. Gently pull the catheter away from the meatus and discard the catheter and urine bag.

A Foley catheter is a common type of indwelling catheter. It has soft, plastic or rubber tube that is inserted into the bladder to drain the urine.
For a hemodialysis catheter, the appropriate code is Z49. 01 (Encounter for fitting and adjustment of extracorporeal dialysis catheter). For any other CVC, code Z45. 2 (Encounter for adjustment and management of vascular access device) should be assigned.
Chronic indwelling catheters are used to manage urinary retention, especially in the presence of urethral obstruction, and to facilitate healing of incontinence-related skin breakdown. These indwelling foreign bodies become coated and sometimes obstructed by biofilm laden with bacteria and struvite crystals.
Indwelling urinary catheters An indwelling urinary catheter is inserted in the same way as an intermittent catheter, but the catheter is left in place. The catheter is held in the bladder by a water-filled balloon, which prevents it falling out. These types of catheters are often known as Foley catheters.
Three-Way Foley Catheter Three-Way Foley catheters function like regular Foley catheters except that they have a third channel used to irrigate the inside of the bladder. A sterile solution is flushed through the tubing to irrigate the bladder.

Appropriate indications for urinary catheters include:Perioperative use in selected surgeries.Acute urinary retention or obstruction.Hospice/comfort care/palliative care.Accurate measurement of urinary output in critically ill patients.Required strict immobilization for trauma or surgery.More items...
