2. Intermittent catheterisation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermittent_catheterisation

   Intermittent catheters come in a variety of designs and differ depending on the user's genitals, with a catheter for a penis being longer and a catheter for a vulva being shorter. The catheter is inserted into the urethra by the patient or a carer and can either be directed down a toilet or, if measurement of volume is required, into a ...

3. Mitrofanoff procedure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitrofanoff_procedure

   Mitrofanoff's concept revolutionized clean intermittent catheterization because it allows urine to be drained via a route other than the urethra. [14] However, the Mitrofanoff procedure was slow to be adopted until a pediatric resident named Marc Cendron translated Mitrofanoff's French language paper for the well-known pediatric urologist Dr ...

   Male external catheters are designed to be worn 24/7 and changed daily – and can be used by men with both light and severe incontinence. Male external catheters come in several sizes and lengths to accommodate anatomical variation. It is very important that the male external catheter/urisheath fits well – both the diameter and the length.

5. Urinary catheterization - Wikipedia

   Currently in most countries the plastic in/out catheters have to be discarded after use. There is a study currently under way called "Single use versus reusable catheters in intermittent catheterisation for treatment of urinary retention: a protocol for a multicentre, prospective, randomised controlled, non-inferiority trial".
