Why are Catheters Necessary?
There are many reasons why some people cannot urinate voluntarily and require a catheter to empty their bladder. The nerve supply to your bladder could be damaged; you may suffer from back problems or an enlarged prostate. Catheterisation may also be necessary after certain types of surgery, or it may be caused by a particular condition you were born with.

Catheters should only be used by individuals who have received instruction from a medical professional. Mediquip supplies products for those already managing a diagnosed condition under appropriate supervision.
