Of all the insertables
here, the catheters
offer a special sort of control game for the BDSM scene. There is no
control
over the urinary function: if the catheter is left open, the bladder
will
drain completely into a leg bag (as shown
left) or a larger table/bedside drainage
bag and continue to drain as more urine is produced by the
body.
If the catheter is
closed off by a clamping
device (our forceps
#C10 or
C12 are great for this!) they cannot urinate... even if they
wanted
to! And you can be sure... Insertion and
removal
are definitely highlights of this procedure!
As with all insertables, play safe
and
remember catheters must be played with only if they are sterilized, so
we suggest getting a few, to be sure you're getting a sealed packaged
catheter.
The earliest
precursor to the present day
Foley catheter is documented in 3000 B.C. It is believed that Egyptians
used metal pipes to perform bladder catheterizations. As early as 400
B.C.,
hollow reeds and pipes were used in cadavers to study the form and
function
of cardiac valves.
In 1844, Claude
Bernard inserted a mercury
thermometer into the carotid artery of a horse and advanced it through
the aortic valve into the left ventricle to measure blood temperature.
It is because of his work that the use of catheters became the method
of
standard for physiologists in the study of cardiovascular blood
flow.
Adolph Fick took
another major step in
the development of cardiac catheterization in 1870. His famous note on
the calculation of blood flow is the basis for today's cardiac
procedures.
Among the earliest
published descriptions
of human catheterization were done by Fritz Bleichroeder, E. Unger, and
W. Loeb in 1912. They were among the first to insert catheters into the
blood vessels without x-ray visualization. Interest in catheterization
was also stimulated with the advent of chemotherapy.
Early chemotherapy
required the injection of drugs directly into the central circulation.
Bleichroeder inserted catheters into dog arteries and assessed the
effects
after leaving them in place for several hours. He reported no
complications
or clots.
The Foley Catheter
came into existence in the 1930s. Frederick E. B. Foley began to
experiment
with different catheters of the time. He realized that urinary
catheters
would easily slip out of the bladder because there was no way to hold
them
in place.
Foley experimented
with different methods of securing the
catheter
until he came up with the idea of attaching a balloon-like device to
the
end of the catheter. The device would then be able to be placed and
then
inflated from the outside. By 1934, Foley catheters were on the market.
Other than in material, the Foley catheter remains relatively unchanged
in design today!
Male
external catheters
have traditionally
been used for the management of urinary incontinence due to surgery,
injury
and disease. These "condom type" devices are placed over the penis and
attached to a collection device, usually a leg bag
which is worn under the clothes for mobility or a bedside drainage
bag for prolonged bed stays.
The nonsensitizing
adhesive provides
a reliable bond to the skin for extra confidence and maximum wear time.
A kink-proof funnel helps ensure uninterrupted urine flow.
They
are clear which allows easy inspection of skin and attachment
area and made of either latex or silicone.
Our wide
band Texas catheter has the adhesive built into almost the entire
sheath wall. It has 70%
more adhesive area than is found in other self-adhering styles, which helps prevent urine migration up the
penis shaft,
which
results in premature removal, and it helps prevent urine build-up
around
the head of the penis, which results in catheter blow-off!
We offer three diameter
sizes to provide proper
fit and greater reliability!
