Cure Male Straight Tip Pocket Catheter

Cure Self-Intermittent Catheterization Instructions

If cathing while lying down, use an underpad. Knees can be straight or bent. If sitting on the toilet, spread your legs apart. Once in position, arrange clothing out of the way.

1. Before you begin, gather the following materials:
   - Cure Medical Pocket Catheter with water soluble lubricant
   - Something to cleanse the area: soap, water and a washcloth, or unscented disposable wipes
   - A container to collect the urine if not cathing on or near a toilet
   - Hand towel
2. Inspect catheter before use. If catheter or package is damaged, do not use.
3. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water, or if not available, use an antibacterial hand cleaner.
4. Lay out the equipment so it is within easy reach. Open the catheter package but do not touch the catheter. Open the water soluble lubricant packet but do not apply it yet.
5. Hold the penis upright on the sides so that the urethra is not pinched. Retract the foreskin if the penis is uncircumcised. As instructed by your medical provider - wash the glans penis from the urethral opening (tip) to the base of the glans with soap, water and washcloth or unscented disposable wipe. Wash with a circular motion from the tip outward. Do not wash back and forth over the urethral opening. Repeat the washing two more times with different areas of the wash cloth or with a new unscented wipe each time.
6. Remove the catheter from the package. Slide the protective gripper sleeve down the catheter to within 4-6 inches of the insertion tip. The sleeve will help ensure sterility of the catheter during insertion.
7. Apply a liberal amount of supplied lubricant to the tip and first several inches of the catheter.
8. While holding the penis upright with one hand at a 45 to 60-degree angle from the body, slowly insert the lubricated catheter into the penis using your dominant hand (shown). Reposition the plastic sleeve as the catheter is advanced into the penis. Do not pull the catheter in and out when you meet resistance at the urethral sphincters; just apply gentle but firm continuous pressure until the catheter advances into the bladder.
9. Once the catheter has passed one half length of the urethra, lower the penis and slide the catheter the rest of the way into the bladder until urine flows. In most cases, the extra long catheter enables drainage directly into the toilet. Hold it in place until urine stops flowing. Allow the bladder to empty completely.
10. When urine stops flowing, slowly rotate the catheter between your fingers while withdrawing the catheter. If urine starts to flow again when withdrawing the catheter, stop each time it flows and let the urine drain. When the bladder is empty, completely remove the catheter by pinching off the end and pulling it out. This will prevent urine from flowing back into the bladder. If you are uncircumcised, make sure you bring the foreskin back over the glans penis when you are finished.
