Introduction to Self-Intermittent Catheterization

Self-intermittent catheterization is the periodic emptying of the bladder by the insertion of a hollow plastic tube (catheter) into the urethra, past the sphincter muscles and into the bladder. Urine then passes out of the bladder through the catheter. Self-intermittent catheterization is used when a person is unable to empty his bladder himself. Medical conditions that often require self-intermittent catheterization include spinal cord injuries, spina bifida or multiple sclerosis, just to name a few. Self-intermittent catheterization must be done at regular intervals each day to keep the bladder healthy.

FAQ's

What is Sterile Self-Intermittent Catheterization?

Self-intermittent catheterization is normally performed as a clean technique, meaning gloves are not used, and the catheter can be held with bare, clean hands. However, your healthcare provider has recommended sterile self-intermittent catheterization to help empty your bladder, keep your urinary system healthy and reduce urinary tract infections.

Sterile self-intermittent catheterization typically means that sterile gloves must be worn and the catheter is not touched, keeping it sterile. However, with the Cure Dextra, sterile catheterization is performed without the need for gloves. The catheter is enclosed in a sterile bag and protected from the bacteria on the urethral opening by the Cure Dextra introducer tip. It is inserted into the body without contact. Then the catheter is advanced into the body by sliding the double ended Gripper Arrow forward and back using full strokes. This allows the user to perform sterile self-intermittent catheterization without touching the catheter.

How Often Should I Catheterize?

Your healthcare provider will let you know how often you will need to perform sterile self-intermittent catheterization and the size of the catheter you will need. Normally, sterile self-intermittent catheterization is performed every four hours starting when you wake up in the morning and continues every four hours until bedtime. Some people catheterize on a more frequent schedule. Most people who catheterize do not need catheterization at night. Your healthcare provider will let you know if you need catheterization at night.
