Catherization
Catheterization is a medical procedure where a thin, flexible tube called a catheter is inserted into the bladder to drain urine when a person is unable to urinate naturally. This procedure is commonly provided by Home Care Services for patients who are bedridden, critically ill, or have urinary issues.
Purpose of Catheterization in Home Care Services:
Catheterization is performed to:
- Assist in Urination: For patients who have difficulty urinating on their own due to surgery, illness, or old age.
- Drain Bladder: To empty the bladder in patients with urinary retention (inability to empty the bladder).
- Monitor Urine Output: In critical patients where urine output needs to be measured for medical observation.
- Relieve Urinary Blockage: In case of prostate enlargement, bladder stones, or nerve damage, catheterization helps relieve urinary blockage.
- Post-Surgery Care: After surgeries like prostate surgery, abdominal surgery, or gynecological procedures, catheters are often used to ensure bladder drainage.
