What is a catheter?
A catheter is a tube that is inserted into your bladder, allowing your urine to drain freely. The most common reasons for using a catheter are to rest the bladder following an episode of urinary retention or to rest the bladder after surgery – most commonly bladder, bowel or urinary tract surgery.
