Thank-you for this EZ to understand video. Great picture to know which tube to cut as well. As well as explanation of the clear water drainage. And to wait a minute before trying to release the catheter. This is nerve wracking for someone who's never done it before. Got the catheter to release. 😅
Nicely done video. I have the three-pronged at the top and was relieved to see exactly how to do this. My doctor was telling me this while I waited to go for surgery. To get verbal instructions when you've never even seen a catheter was not the best way to teach. Even a half sheet of paper with a diagram and the steps would have been much appreciated. I am so glad CZcams exists! But I have to say, finding a really good video for whatever you're looking for can be time-consuming. It takes skill to produce educational videos. I didn't realize until recently how much skill!
omg I lost the one syringe I have and I've been going crazy trying to find it. TYSM for this solution. You just dont know how helpful this video is! I know a syringe is better but when its 1 Am and you need a solution to a simple issue this is a breath of relief.
For the sake of your patient. Make sure you have every drop of saline form the balloon, DO NOT get in a rush! An inflated balloon is the worst pain you can imagine.
@@msteryosa4239 because no one is smart enough to put a couple paper towels under it first....plus they can charge you for another procedure in a hospital ....probably 10 extra bucks for a new syringe each time ...matters not if they paid 50cents
You MUST use a syringe! You need to know it was 10cc you removed as that is what went in. What goes in must come out. If for any reason you don’t get 10cc, such as a blockage or a faulty cath balloon, you will be pulling a partially deflated balloon through a urethra. Ummmm, NO thank you. Patient comfort. Certainly in an emergency you can cut but protocol is a syringe. Why would anyone want to take that chance!? The damage you can do by pulling a partially filled 14-16fr through a urethra isn’t going to be fun for patient and it’s problematic to infection, urethral tearing etc. Cutting is lazy nursing. Period.
I recommend using a syringe. They're cheap and easy to obtain. if however, you do go this route, at the very least use a measuring cup to assure full deflation of the Foley balloon, The balloon holds 10cc of saline, so you should have 10cc of saline after deflation. Then you know that it is safe to pull the catheter through. Pulling a partially deflated balloon through your urethra isn't only going to hurt badly, it's gonna cause more problems. Oh and be sterile! Use gloves and alcohol. I believe the information I've given to be true, you shouldn't * I am not a medical professional * search for, " Foley catheter removal"
One way not to do it: Do not let Jessica, a nurse at San Leandro hospital remove it. She didn't deflate the balloon. Just took a hard yank, and pulled it out. There will be blood.
Two catheter changes in the same day After a month of placement, my catheter became clogged. At midnight I had severe cramps and an attempt to unblock it with a larger syringe full of distilled water for flushing failed. So I emptied the balloon with an empty smaller syringe and expected the catheter to come out by itself. But it didn't come out even when I pulled it. I pulled harder and the catheter stretched like a rubber band. Once before I already had an independent forced withdrawal of the catheter, with pain and bleeding of the prostate, but then there was no such elastic resistance of the catheter. What to do? I am 74 years old and have been wearing a catheter for 7 years and maintain and change it myself. I knew the problem was mechanical - one half of the inside of the catheter was calcified with sand and the outside of the balloon had sand deposited so although deflated, the balloon would not penetrate the bladder sphincter. So I took a piece of soft wire, the kind used when connecting reinforcement for concrete columns and beams. I pulled the wire into the catheter tube and gradually turned it left and right. When I managed to get her two-thirds of the way up the catheter, I squeezed her firmly over the catheter tube and, regardless of the pain, pulled her out with the catheter. That worked, the catheter came out, the balloon and the drainage holes of the catheter were lined with sand. It hurt and I bled but not more than an average period. I waited a few hours for the blood to drain from the penis and then inserted a new catheter. I didn't fall asleep until around 8am and slept until 1pm Then I went out on the footpath. to hit my 5km for the day. And when I was about 2 kilometers in, I felt the balloon on the catheter burst, even though it was only filled with 10 milliliters of the recommended 30. I turned back and walking home I could feel the edges of the protruding ruptured balloon cutting my prostate and urethra. In doing so, I peed in panties. At home, the catheter had already come out by itself and there was new bleeding. Then I put a new catheter and now I am calm.
WHAT? That IS the part you cut off! If you mistakenly cut the URINE port then move quickly with something to absorb urine and ASAP cut ballon port tube and remove the catheter ....since you have been sitting there for a YEAR now with dysfunctional foley waiting for someone to answer you on youtube
must be a different kinda catheter my doc out in me, which i will be removing myself tomorrow. he gave me 2 syringes to attach to the one port and draw it out. could it be easier or even possible i could do it your way on mine?
kenneth risner I had a hard time finding the type a syringe to remove the fluid from the balloon I just snapped like this then might do that on purpose so you don’t reuse the catheter
@@coronaflo I agree and I'm a nurse. I've done hundreds of these indwellings. We were taught to use both methods for removal, but cutting seems to be more sure. I wouldn't want that balloon exiting my urethra.
Cutting the tube is the most stupid and dangerous way of removing the catheter. Necessary pressure is required to remove water from the balloon which can only be achieved by a syringe. Disliking the video.
“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.
Come on man really???? As a person raised in a Christian family and KNOWING that Christ is the one true GOD .I have never gone around talking bad or telling people that there's only one true religion and they are wrong in everything they believe. As much as I KNOW this to be true,I feel pity that they have been deceived for so long. Yet I still keep my opinion to myself , So why do these poor pathetic , gullible mentally retarded little people think that it's OK to mock my beliefs. I guess I will never understand what goes through the tiny minds of such retched pathetic Creatures.

Got the catheter to release. 😅
God bless you! it came with a syringe which did not extract all the water! I started to panic and found your video. You saved me.

Relief! I just took mine out thanks to this video. I cut the tube and the catheter slipped out easy as pie. Thank you!
It helps to push down a bit like having a bowel movement after the fluid is out
Thank you for this video. Had just removed the tube for my dad. As he was feeling painful for last 3-4 hours.
thank you that was very helpful
We just removed my catheter and it did come out smoothly although at the end where the balloon was deflated we had to pull a little bit to remove it
This is the best video simple fast explanation u are perfect
Thank you so much, it worked for my father
Heartiest thanks for your kindness
For the sake of your patient. Make sure you have every drop of saline
form the balloon, DO NOT get in a rush! An inflated balloon is the
worst pain you can imagine.
Ues PLEASE....
if tube come automatically is there any problem
Thank you for saving my life at midnight. Cannot wait for 2 more days to take it off. It's causing me lot of pain and trouble 🙄🙄🙄
Thanks you so much.. 🙏😢I save my grandfather.. Pain 🙏
Not advisable to cut.. use 10 cc syringe to remove sterile water in the baloon...
Not everyone has a cc syringe available to them. That’s why this video was made.
Thanks for this, I could not wait 5 more days with foley.
🎉wow super amazing information sir tq 🤝✨💐✨✨
Thank you so much.❤ 😊 🙏 it's really helpful.
Thank you very much 🙏🙏
Thank you so much sir... It really works 🤗
If the distilled water not coming out what we will do
Cry lmfao
Thanks very helpful sir
Thank you so much Sir...🙏💐
So I can do this without a Dr? ...After 2 wks I'm ready to get rid of this thing ..
there are many videos saying use a syringe and yours is the only one saying just to cut it. so is it safe to cut ANY catheter?
mozzbozz i think the reason why they are using a syringe so its not gonna be messy, coz if you cut the catheter it will leak into your bed

Please show my husband has long term catheter but he is bypassing urine is not going in folly
Thank you sir.....
U made me happy.....

I work for City of San Leandro & just removed mine by myself.
I used 10mm syringe to deflate & have a little tug. Out it came!

I had a stent taken out and it burned like hell after he took it out. Does it burn when they take the catheter out?
Your first urination after removal is often quite memorable.
@@rkaye4370
Couldn't you have lied?
LOL
Im a femail...it does sting and burn
Very nice
Do it hurt talking it out
mistakenly cut off the balloon port? what can l do?

Cutting is what we were taught.
It is way faster and easier to tell if you have complete deflation.
My urologist said I didn't need a syringe just to cut it like in the video.

Thank you for sharing. I will be taking my husbands out on Friday.
