Foley Catheter and Drainage Bag Care (Part 1)
My dad is 85 and just started on this. He hates it
My husband has two Nephrostomys. They are changed every 4 weeks (Germany). If they are blocked, I flush them with a sterile saline product. Our doc has warned us, not to use more than 3-5 ml, because it can disrupt the kidney . Besides it hurts to put in more. If I put anything in and out and in and out, I use what is coming out of the kidney anyway.
very helpful, thank you!
Great stuff.
Thank you so much for this video
You can actually use a night bag with a nephrostomy. My leg bag has a tendency to get stuffed if I try to use it overnight.
Thanks for this video. My husband had a nephrostomy at Hospital Auxilio Mutuo here in San Juan, Puerto Rico and NO ONE has explained any of this to us. No one. The service here is so poor and mediocre. Thanks to CZcams and thanks again to you.
Very useful and practical advice. BUT, what is desperately needed is a video explaining how to connect and route the rigging (tubing and bags) to a catheter coming from the tip of your male member -- and. addressing what to do (how to get maximum 'safe' freedom of movement) when the external part of the catheter tube is relatively short.
My husband had a suprapublic catheter put in on April 5 at a urology center here in Omaha. He started bleeding and clotting real bad and he went into hospital April 7. While he was in the hospital they capped his suprapublic catheter and put a foley catheter in. He was discharged from the hospital April 22. Now his catheter needs to be changed. The Urology place gave instructions to our homecare agency nurse to take out the foley catheter permanently and change the suprapubic catheter. The nurse told us yesterday that when she changes his suprapublic catheter there will be clotting and bleeding with the suprapubic catheter. Is this true?
Hi
Pushing non sterile water into your kidney seems a good way to get an infection. Why not use sterile prefilled syringes?
Great info.
Thank You! Needed this..... Currently, I have IC~ Interstitial Cystitis, and it's very painful. At this moment; I have a Foley Catheter, it's leaking a bit. Your video helped me fix it. Also, I see blood in the tube, very light clots... Again, I appreciated your video- SUBSCRIBED 😊
Sir I am cut of balloon way but distil water not remove ,so I am not removing Catheter 😢
What is the brand of the leg bag?
Very helpful video. My husband had a catheter put on yesterday. Do not like the straps. What brand is the catheter you are using? Looks much better.
Not work very well, create lots of paint ….because it installed to cloce to insert. It very convinian for provider and producer.not for patients.If the bac installed below the knee it huge difference..(own experience)
Useful information but i wouldn't throw the bag around or put any f*** tension on the PCN tubes
Thank you I should have watched this video with my first catheter experience.
Something I have discovered is if your SP catheter is clogging up from sediment in urine, is changing to a silicone catheter and getting the 20 gauge size. I was having clogging problem with mine for 5 straight months until I changed to silicone type. Problem solved!
My father has 2 nephrostomy bags from his kidneys. He pulled on one of the tubes and now there is blood showing up in the tube for the past few hours and comes and goes with movement. Is this something to worry about and to bring him to emerge? He doesn't feel any pain either
Awesome explanation.love to see more of You're teachings
Seriously did you just say that if you see lots of blood to drink lots of tea or coffee to flush your bladder???? Surely with these being full of caffeine which irritates the bladder they should be avoided and stick to water.
My brother has nefrostomi. How can we get urine from penis for analysis and still keep nefrostomi. How can we we disconnect nefrostomi get urine from penis Ankara Türkiye
Best explanation ever
Was the syringe used in the balloon a luer lock syringe?
Thankyou. I am really enjoying your channel
Thankyou very much...excellent information..
Best YouTuve video on this subject for civilians/patients: thank you.
My brother has had this in place for a few months. He got no instructions on how to care for this AT all. I've been cleaning the dressing but never knew we had to flush this or replace anything. I'm freaking out now because he did not know and not one Dr ever told him to flush this. It's not draining on one side and they never seemed concerned with this. I'm going to go get supplies to do this flush it. But I'm scared. But it needs to be done.
The same happened to us. My husband had a nephrostomy and no one EVER gave us instructions on how to care for it. Much less, how to flush it.

Excellent demo and thank you.
Ten to twelve experiences with these. When it is removed it feels like being stung by a thousand bees. I hate everyone that refused to sedate me each time one was removed and I will chose death next time one is needed. I hate them, I hate them. I hate them.
My dad just got one. He’s 85 and it’s like hell.
❤❤❤❤❤
If you feel you have to go, can you go like with a flip flow?
Tq so much for this informative video about Nephrostomy tube 😊Very useful
You nailed it! This was soooo simple! You were straightforward in your explanation and made it cornbread simple. Thank you!
Sorry, I would not want to walk around with a tube in my urethra and a urine bag on my leg.
Question what if the bag connection slips out when you tug it? Or wh ed n you try to connect it it starts to come out by itself ?
I find connecting the catheter to the connection works well when you push it on with your thumb and index finger. Don’t pinch the catheter over the plastic connection, but rather push the catheter only. (Not the hard plastic your sliding it onto) This only works when the catheter is almost too small to fit over the hard plastic nozzle of the connection. Also, try moistening the hard plastic nozzle with water to lubricate the connection as you push.
Hello dear Doctor, please, what is your advice for redness around the tip of the penis where the catheter tube coming out? Thanks in advance for you respond.
“If you declare with your mouth “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9). Now is the time to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Obey His commands and repent of your sins because Jesus is coming back soon. Tomorrow isn’t promised.
Nursing 101: Never place a bag (Nephrostomy or Foley) on the floor. The floor is dirty, bacteria climbs, and the hole in your body will let the bacteria in.
The water or saline must be sterile, correct? A 5 CC balloon should be filled with 10 CC, correct? A 10 CC syringe with a Laur Slip tip should be used? THANKS.😄
Outstanding Instructional Video! Thank you for caring enough to show us about Nephrostomy Tubes!
Is it hard to remove the catheter?
Really helpful thanks
How can a cut in tube from kidney be repaired?pls guide thank you
After how long we need to change the Catheter ? Thanks Dr
Four t six weeks.
What about if the catheter isn’t resting on the floor of bladder because it is too far up? Would that also cause urine to go around the catheter too?
Good question! I want to know also.
Thank you so much h for this video they showed me when I left hospital could not remember thank you
