The Suprapubic Foley Catheter is a type of indwelling catheter that is inserted through a hole in the tummy (abdomen) and then directly into the bladder. It is used when the urethra is damaged or blocked, or when someone is unable to use an intermittent catheter. Urinary drainage via the suprapubic route is recognized as an effective method of bladder drainage that causes fewer complications compared to urethral catheterization, including a reduced incidence of infection and trauma, a reduced risk of catheter blockage, less patient inconvenience, making it suitable for long-term catheterization.
