All urinary catheters should be: Prescribed in single units Prescribed 3 initially, but 2 on repeat. Long term catheters can stay in situ for up to 12 weeks. The following catheters are suitable for both urethral and supra pubic catheterisation. 100% silicone catheters should be used for all patients who have an allergy to latex. Woodward (1997) and Blandy (1980) highlighted the problems of latex catheters, including toxicity leading to urethritis, stricture formation and encrustation. All silicone catheters have a slightly wider lumen than that of coated catheters; this aspect should be considered if the patient is prone to blockage of their catheter. Silicone allows diffusion of water; balloons may therefore occasionally deflate in situ, causing the catheter to fall out. Silicone catheters induce only a mild degree of inflammation in the urethra compared with coated catheters.

They are latex catheters that have been coated. They are less susceptible to encrustation that those that have been silicones (Talja et al, 1990) and are less prone to bacterial adherence (Roberts et al, 1993).

Ensure bags are not changed un-necessarily as it is it put the patients at increased risk of infection by breaking the closed drainage system more than necessary. When used in conjunction with 2litre night bags, patients/carers should always attach the night bag to the bottom of the leg bag. This ensures unnecessary breaking of the ‘closed drainage system’. Writing the date of next change on the leg bag is also recommended best practice. Lever action (sterile)
