| catheterization |
To manage the symptoms of urinary incontinence catheterization techniques are used. Catheterization can involve internal or external urine collection. If an internal catheterization technique is chosen, a narrow tube is introduced through the urethra into the bladder to withdraw urine. A second option in catheterization is to have an external collection device. This device is attached to the genitals to collect urine and drain it into a collection bag.
