@@elizabethtrainer9732 I might need a catheter - surgery next month, so hoping I do not get a beginner! This will be embarrassing enough without the fumbling around. I've had to coach my Doctor's assistant on how and when to book the tests I was supposed to get. I'm not a nurse, and I was astounded at how many people cannot do their job properly. We can't expect anyone to be competent.

New grad nurse. Thanks for this video. I’m about to perform a straight cath on a female for the first time ever and without my preceptor. Fingers crossed 🤞🏿 it goes well!

My best advice regarding this is to always bring a second catheter kit in the event your “aim” isn’t good on the first attempt…
@phoenixj66062 жыл бұрын
My advice is to show with the camera the insertion itself. What I can only see are hands that cover the entire genital area so nothing can be seen.

Thank you. I’m not a nurse but my mom recently had surgery and needs help with catheters for a few days. I’m hoping that I can do it in such a way that is comfortable.

They had to do this to me several weeks ago. I had had surgery and not gone to the bathroom for hours. They did this to empty my bladder. It was the first time a straight cath was used on me.

In my early days of being a nurse, I emptied a catheter and forgot to clamp it shut! I returned to the room later to see there was urine all over the floor. I never forgot to do that again. - Ellis

It would be a great video if the nurse kept her hand out of the way so we could see what hole they were putting the cath in.

You should definitely learn the female anatomy before you try this procedure. I’m surprised you don’t know (assuming you are a nursing student or nurse)

So if it’s for a UA sample we just pour it into the cup?
@LevelUpRN Жыл бұрын
The end of the catheter tube is open and urine will drain out. In many facilities you must have a second RN for catheter insertions so I will usually ask them to hold the sample cup and they "catch" the urine for the sample. When they've gotten enough, the rest of the urine drains into the container or a urinal.

@ashleyh.83056 ай бұрын
Incorrect. Everything in the kit is sterile & if you touch it without sterile gloves on, it is no longer sterile. Once she touched the vaginal area with her left hand, she never moved it, keeping her sterile field.
@obylyrn68115 ай бұрын
Non sterile gloves are on only when cleaning your sterile field prior to putting the supplies on the table.You then use a hand sanitizer before touching the one you lay under the pt then the procedures as she did them.
