In urinary catheterization ("cathing" for short), a latex, polyurethane or silicone tube known as a urinary catheter is inserted into a patient's bladder via his or her urethra. Catheterization allows the patient's urine
to drain freely from the bladder for collection. It may be used to
inject liquids used for treatment or diagnosis of bladder conditions. A clinician, often a nurse,
usually performs the procedure; but self-catheterization is also
possible. The catheter may be a permanent one (indwelling catheter), or
an intermittent catheter removed after each catheterization.
