Folley Catheters Size 16

The Foley Catheter Size 16 is the most commonly used size for average adult males and females. It offers a balance between drainage efficiency and patient comfort. This sterile, 2-way catheter is used for continuous bladder drainage. It features a balloon at the tip to retain the catheter inside the bladder. The 16 Fr size (Orange color code) is large enough to allow free flow of clear urine but small enough to minimize urethral discomfort. It is a fundamental item in urology and general nursing care.

Description

The Size 16 Foley Catheter (16 Fr) is the standard “go-to” catheter for general adult catheterization. It is designed to minimize trauma while ensuring effective bladder emptying.

Product Features:
– Gauge: 16 Fr (Orange connector).
– Channels: 2-Way system. One lumen drains urine; the other inflates the retention balloon.
– Balloon: Symmetrical inflation ensures the catheter stays upright in the bladder and prevents leakage.
– Valve: Hard plastic valve for secure connection to a syringe (Luer slip or Luer lock) for inflation/deflation.
– Surface: Silicone elastomer coating resists encrustation and bacterial colonization better than plain latex.

Usage:
Suitable for short-term and medium-term catheterization. The drainage funnel connects securely to leg bags or bedside drainage bags.
Precaution: Do not force insertion. If resistance is met (especially in males due to the prostate), stop and seek medical assistance. Ensure the balloon is inflated with sterile water, not saline, to prevent crystal formation in the balloon channel.
