LSCIC Stanmore Catheter Valves and Catheter Clamping Information July 2017
Catheter valve and clamping advice sheet created by RNOH
A catheter valve is a small device that is connected between the catheter and the drainage bag. Closing and opening of the valve allows the bladder to fill and maintain a good bladder capacity (Sheriff et al 1998 and Abrams et al 2004). It can be used without the urinary drainage bag to allow the patient to participate in swimming, showering and bathing.
