Rely on Henry Schein Medical to provide the equipment and supplies you need, including a diverse range of catheter supplies, products, and accessories, in order to stay ahead in a urology market that is evolving and poised for high growth.


Urinary Catheters

A urinary catheter is an elastic tube used to empty a patient’s bladder and collect urine into a drainage bag. Inserted by a health care professional, catheters can be used with a tube that transports urine out of the bladder (urethral catheter) or within a small incision made in the patient’s lower abdomen (suprapubic catheter). Throughout the process, the catheter will remain in the bladder, allowing urine to comfortably flow into the drainage bag.

Types of Urinary Catheters

  • Intermittent Catheters: these are briefly implanted into the bladder and detached once the bladder is empty fully expelled.
  • Indwelling Catheters: these are inserted for long-term use over several days to weeks and are held in place by an inflated balloon within the bladder. Because catheter placement can be uncomfortable, patients will typically prefer the indwelling catheters to avoid several insertions and removals.

When to Use Urinary Catheters

When a patient has difficulty urinating naturally, a urinary catheter can be inserted to allow the health care provider to perform essential tests or to help the patient relieve their bladder post-surgery.

Additional reasons include:

  • When a patient develops scarring or prostate enlargement, a urinary catheter may be used to help drain their bladder due to obstruction in their urethra.
  • In the event of a bladder weakness or nerve damage, a patient’s ability to urinate may be affected. A urinary catheter can help make the process of urinating more comfortable.
  • If an epidural anesthetic is used during childbirth, a urinary catheter may be used to drain the patient’s bladder.
  • When specific surgeries are performed, a urinary catheter can be used for bladder drainage before, during, or post-surgery.
  • When a health care provider needs to administer medicine continuously and directly into their patient’s bladder for bladder cancers or chemotherapy treatments, a urinary catheter would be used.
  • When several other urinary incontinence strategies have failed, a urinary catheter could be successful in bladder drainage.
