Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 3-way Foley catheter used for?
▾
A 3-way Foley catheter allows simultaneous urine drainage, balloon inflation, and bladder irrigation. It is commonly used after surgeries like TURP to flush clots and maintain clear drainage, ensuring optimal postoperative recovery and preventing blockages in the urinary tract.
