Foley Catheters
by preciouz1231, Apr 15, 2009 12:21PM
My mother is 67 years old. She has been a paraplegic now since 1995 and has been with a foley catheter ever since. Within this past year her catheter keeps coming out. In the past when it came out, it was usually due to a UTI. However, this is not the case. Her catheter comes out now on a daily basis and they have already increased the size of the catheter to the largest size they have. What other options do we have other than a supra pubic cathetar and bladder neck closure? Also, how can we find out why her catheter keeps coming out anyway?
Thanks,
Preciouz
