How to Remove a Foley Catheter (Female) Nursing | Indwelling Foley Catheter Removal

How to remove an indwelling Foley catheter in a female patient: clinical nursing skills. When removing a Foley catheter, there are several steps you'll want to take to keep the patient safe and to reduce the risk of an infection (CAUTI).
First, you'll always want to ensure you have a doctor's order to remove a Foley in a clinical setting. In addition, you'll want to verify that you have the right patient, right procedure, that you have gathered the right supplies, and more.

You'll also want to drain the collection bag into a graduated cylinder to measure the patient's output.
Some important steps to remember include removing the stabilization device (Statlock), performing peri-care and catheter care, performing hand hygiene as necessary, donning and doffing gloves, and more.
It's important to note the amount of water on the port so that you can attach a syringe to completely withdraw the water. Allow the syringe to pull the water out of the balloon without forcing it.
Be sure to inspect the catheter's tip for any signs of damage, drainage, growth of substances, etc.
Document your findings, discard all used equipment per your facility's protocols, doff gloves, and perform hand hygiene.

This was so helpful! I'm not medical, but I work for a hospital system and have to make training documents. And I have to make one right now regarding foleys and your video was so helpful for me to see what equipment is used and what trash would be generated!

I’ve actually found it’s easiest to take it out when the patient is on the toilet, helps to relax the muscles and help with any dripping haha

I hate those catherers. They apparently put one in me in the OR when I was completely unconscious. I never would have consented to that because it's humiliating, invasive and the danger of infection from sticking foreign objects in my body. Never happened before in my life and it will never happen again. For all I know, a male could have inserted that damn thing and now I'll never know. I'm very modest and that has to be respected. 😒☹️🙁
