FOLEY CATHETER
a. Transfer of pathogenic microbes from a Foley catheter to a patient
b. Transfer of microbes through hand contact with a waitress in the coffee shop adjacent to the hospital
c. Placement of an unclean radiographic receptor against a patient wound during a portable examination
d. Contamination of a surgical instrument in the surgical theater
a. Common colds picked up on contaminated x-ray equipment
b. Urinary tract infections from Foley catheter insertions
c. Staphylococcal infection from labor and delivery
d. Hepatitis B infection from contaminated needles
The inflatable balloon portion of the Foley catheter is typically filled with:
a. radiopaque contrast material.
b. carbon dioxide.
c. sterile water.
d. mineral oil.
The purpose of the inflatable balloon portion at the tip of the Foley catheter is to:
a. hold the catheter within the bladder.
b. present the backflow of urine into the ureters.
c. permit its visualization under fluoroscopy.
d. induce the stimulus for voiding.
When handling a patient with a Foley catheter in place:
a. the drainage bag should be placed at the same level or higher than the bladder.
b. avoid kinks in the tubing and keep the drainage bag lower than the bladder.
c. it is advisable to clamp the tubing in order to do a lengthy small bowel study.
d. never let the volume of urine fill more than 30% of the collection bag capacity.
When a Foley catheter system is inserted into a patient for an expected period of 4 to 6
weeks:
a. a polyvinyl chloride catheter is used.
b. a suction pump is attached to the drainage bag to ensure bladder emptying.
c. the patient is taught how to remove and replace the Foley using aseptic techniques.
d. the catheter will most likely not have an inflatable balloon end.
All of the following are true in regards to Foley catheters EXCEPT:
a. this type of catheter is held in place by an inflatable balloon at the end
b. this type of closed drainage system catheter is used for a long-term use and sutured to the
skin
c. this type of catheter is used primarily to empty the bladder
d. this type of catheter can be made of varying materials such as latex or plastic
