Urinary catheterization is the insertion of a specially designed tube into the bladder through the urethra. There are two types of urinary catheterization: indwelling and intermittent. Indwelling catheters remain in place within the bladder for a period of time, whereas, intermittent are inserted and removed once the bladder has drained. This video demonstrates the procedure of inserting, maintaining and removal of a urinary catheter. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This video is intended for educational purposes only.
