3-Way Latex Foley Catheter | Medical Grade Urethral Catheter with Large Irrigation Lumen

Three-way Foley catheters are used when irrigation of the bladder is anticipated to prevent or manage blood clots in the bladder.

External Use: This catheter is specifically designed for external placement, meaning it is inserted into the urethra and remains outside the body. It is typically used in male patients who are unable to tolerate an internal catheter or have specific medical conditions.

3-Way Design: The catheter has a 3-way design, which means it has three lumens or channels. These lumens serve different purposes:

a. Urine Drainage Lumen: This lumen is responsible for draining urine from the bladder. It allows continuous or intermittent urine flow from the bladder to an external collection bag.

b. Balloon Inflation Lumen: Similar to other Foley catheters, the external urethral catheter has a balloon that can be inflated using sterile water or saline solution. The inflated balloon helps secure the catheter in place.

c. Irrigation Lumen: The third lumen is used for irrigation purposes. It allows healthcare professionals to flush the catheter and bladder with sterile fluids, such as saline solution or medicated solutions, if necessary.

Latex Material: The external urethral catheter is made of latex, which provides flexibility and softness for patient comfort during external use. However, it's important to consider latex allergies and use alternative materials, such as silicone or hydrogel-coated latex, for patients with latex sensitivities.

Size Options: The external urethral catheter comes in various sizes to accommodate different patient anatomies and needs. Sizes are typically indicated in French (Fr) units, which represent the diameter of the catheter tubing.

Sterility: Similar to other medical catheters, the external urethral catheter is typically supplied sterile and individually packaged to ensure infection control during insertion and use.
