Before starting to empty your bladder always gather your supplies as instructed by your doctor or nurse.
- Wash your hands well and dry them.
- Gently clean the head of the penis and the penis tip (use mild soap and water or a disinfectant wipe). Use a circular motion, starting at the urethra going outwards.
- Open your catheter and prepare it according to the instructions for use supplied by the manufacturer.
- Gently insert the catheter into the urethra until urine starts to flow.
- Once the urine stops running, begin to withdraw the catheter slowly while slightly rotating it. If you are using a curved tip catheter (coudé), do not rotate.
- Stop briefly each time more urine drains out. Move a little and straighten yourself up to make sure the bladder is completely empty.
- Throw away the catheter after using it (as household waste) and wash your hands once more.
Before use, always consult the 'Instructions for use' document delivered with the products
