Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 2-way Foley catheter used for?
▾
A 2-way Foley catheter is used for draining urine and inflating a retention balloon. One lumen allows urine to exit, while the other inflates the balloon to keep the catheter in place during short-term use.
Does this catheter contain latex?
▾
Yes, this catheter is made of latex but coated with silicone elastomer to reduce irritation. It should not be used by individuals with known severe latex allergies.
How do you insert the Kendall Dover 20Fr catheter?

Is the 30cc balloon pre-filled?

No, the 30cc balloon is not pre-filled. It must be inflated with sterile water using a syringe through the inflation lumen once the catheter is in place.
