Additional Information for Nephrostomy Catheter
Nephrostomy catheters are medical devices used in the field of urology. They are part of the supply class "Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies" and belong to the supply group "Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies."
A nephrostomy catheter is a thin, flexible tube that is inserted into the kidney through the skin. It is used to drain urine from the kidney when the normal urinary pathway is blocked or compromised. This procedure is called nephrostomy.
Nephrostomy catheters are typically made of medical-grade materials such as silicone or polyurethane. They are available in various sizes and lengths to accommodate different patient needs. The catheter is inserted into the kidney through a small incision made in the back or side of the patient. It is then connected to a drainage bag or collection system to collect the urine.
These catheters are used in cases where there is a blockage in the urinary system, such as kidney stones, tumors, or strictures. They can also be used to bypass a damaged or obstructed ureter, allowing urine to flow directly from the kidney to the external collection system.
Nephrostomy catheters require proper care and maintenance to prevent infection and ensure proper functioning. They may need to be periodically flushed or replaced, depending on the patient's condition and the healthcare provider's instructions.
It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for specific information and guidance regarding the use of nephrostomy catheters, as they are medical devices that require proper training and expertise for insertion and management.
