<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><a></a>Inserting a catheter in a bladder during a medical procedure to drain it is referred to as an intermittent urinary catheterization. This medical procedure is performed by <a></a>medical professionals on individuals unable to naturally devoid their bladder of contents. The catheter is inserted through the urethra, and the urine is collected in a sterile bag.</p>

<p>In an intermittent bladder/urinary catheterization, <a href="https://www.wellead.com/product_type/urology/subId/17/"><mark style="background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)" class="has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color">Nelaton catheter</mark></a> is commonly used as an intermittent urinary catheter. Like other intermittent catheters, it is also attached temporarily for draining the bladder and then removed. A Nelaton catheter is made using a thin flexible tube for effectiveness.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Nelaton Catheter</strong></h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A Nelaton catheter is designed keeping its short-term usage in mind. It is made flexible using medical-grade materials for ease of application and removal. Its thin tube facilitates managing urinary retention and draining the bladder.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The most prominent advantage of a Nelaton catheter is its comfort. The design and flexibility reduce the trauma for the patient during insertion and removal. As an intermittent catheter, it ensures efficient drainage and is typically available in a range of sizes.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Nelaton Catheter Size and Selection</strong></h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A Nelaton catheter is available in a range of sizes. The size of intermittent catheters is measured in French (Fr) units. A Nelaton catheter size ranges from anywhere between 6 Fr to 24 Fr for adults and pediatrics.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>These are the factors considered by medical professionals when choosing a Nelaton catheter size for their patient:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:list {"ordered":true} -->
<ol><!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Patient Anatomy</strong>: The size of the Nelaton catheter must match the dimension of the patient's urethra.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Age and Gender</strong>: Females and children generally require smaller catheters, but the specific size will depend on the individual's anatomy and age.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Usage</strong>: The medical condition that has mandated the use of a Nelaton catheter and the amount of content that needs to be drained.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Frequency</strong>: A smaller size may be chosen to minimize urethral irritation if it will be used frequently.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Guidelines</strong>: If any provided for the use of intermittent catheters.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item --></ol>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Procedures For Using the Nelaton Catheter</h4>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The generalized procedure of Nelaton catheter use is:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:list -->
<ul><!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Preparation:</strong> Gather supplies for the medical procedure and properly sanitize everything, including washing the hands of the medical professional.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Patient Preparation: </strong>Mentally prepare the patient and lead them through the procedure. Lie them in a comfortable position before insertion.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Insertion: </strong>Clean the insertion area with wipes and lubricate it before insertion. Then, gently insert the Nelaton catheter through the opening till the contents start draining.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Drainage:</strong> Hold the catheter in place until all the content is drained, and then remove the catheter.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li><strong>Care:</strong> Clean the area with wipes and carefully dispose of the materials.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item --></ul>
<!-- /wp:list -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Like any procedure, intermittent urinary catheterization has some potential risks. Whether you use a Foley catheter or a Nelaton catheter, beware of these risks:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:list -->
<ul><!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>Infections caused by improper sanitization.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>The patient may experience some bladder spasms.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>There may be leakage or blockage due to improper administration of the catheter.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>Unprofessional insertion may cause trauma to the urethra.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>The procedure may cause slight bleeding, and there may be some blood in the urine.</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item --></ul>
<!-- /wp:list -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>While the use of a Nelaton catheter is generally safe when used correctly, it is important to follow proper procedure and hygiene practices to minimize these risks that may occur during intermittent urinary catheterization.</p>
