Urinary catheters are used for patients suffering from urinary incontinence, urinary retention and other urological disorders. Urinary catheters include indwelling (Foley) catheter, intermittent (short-term) catheter and external (condom) catheter. Indwelling or Foley catheter is a flexible tube with lumens at both ends. This type of catheter is inserted into the bladder through the urethra and suspended in the bladder. A tiny balloon attachment at one end of the catheter is inflated to prevent the tube from sliding out of the body. An intermittent catheter is a flexible catheter used to empty the bladder at regular intervals. This catheter is removed once the flow of urine stops. External or condom catheter is typically used for elderly male patients suffering from dementia (loss of brain function). This catheter is shaped like a condom and is placed over the male genital, with a tube leading to a drainage bag, which collects the urine.
