1. WHAT URO-TAINER CHLORHEXIDINE IS AND WHAT IT
IS USED FOR
Chlorhexidine is an antiseptic agent.
You are given this solution when an urinary catheter has been inserted
and it is to be left in place for some time. Uro-Tainer Chlorhexidine
is
then used to flush the catheter, to reduce the risk of catheter
related
bladder infections or to treat them.
2. BEFORE YOU USE URO-TAINER CHLORHEXIDINE
DO NOT USE URO-TAINER CHLORHEXIDINE
This product must not be used if you are hypersensitive (allergic) to
chlo-
rhexidine or any of the other ingredients of the solution.
This product is not suitable for treatment of infections with some
bac-
teria such as Pseudomonas, Alcaligenes faecalis, Mycobacterium tuber-
culosis and Proteus mirabilis as these do not respond to chlorhexidine
treatment.
TAKE SPECIAL CARE WITH URO-TAINER CHLORHEXIDINE
• if you have a sore bladder
• if your urinary passage is blocked (urinary tract obstruction)
Your doctor will observe you in order to analyze if you get an
allergic
reaction. If such a reaction occurs your doctor will give you any
neces-
sary treatment.
TAKING OR USING OTHER MEDICINES
Please tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have
recently
taken any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a pre-
scription.

Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking any medicine.
Uro-Tainer Chlorhexidine should be used only after carefully outweigh-
ing the risks against the benefits in pregnancy and during breast
feeding.
Your doctor will determine very carefully whet

Maintenance Solutions
A GUIDE TO BEST PRACTICE
INTRODUCTION
Long term indwelling catheters can cause many problems, therefore the
care and
maintenance of indwelling urinary catheters is of major nursing
concern. These problems
can be minimised by individual assessments, a holistic approach and
evidence based
practice.
The Uro-Tainer concept was developed to replace the use of bladder
syringes for ‘washing’
out catheters in the 1980’s. This concept reduced the associated
risks of high pressure and
suction on the bladder mucosa that occurred with the use of the
‘bladder syringe’.
The various Uro-Tainer solutions available all have different
indications for use but the
most common indication is that of catheter encrustation.
Professor Getliffe (1994, 1998, 2000) found that recurrent catheter
encrustation leading
to blockage occurs in up to half of patients who are catheterised
long-term and that these
mineral deposits can be dissolved by acidic solutions e.g. Suby G and
Solutio R.
This booklet aims to:

Describe best practice in relation to Uro-Tainer catheter maintenance
solutions

Describe each Uro-Tainer solution and its correct use

Offer general advice regarding catheter care
THESE GUIDELINES ARE NO SUBSTITUTE FOR YOUR PROFESSIONAL JUDGEMENT
OR ACCOUNTABILITY. YOU ARE STILL RESPONSIBLE AND ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE
PRACTICE YOU DELIVER (BRITISH JOURNAL OF NURSING, VOL 8, NO 5 1999). A
FULL ASSESSMENT OF THE PATIENTS CONDITION SHOULD BE PERFORMED BEFORE
USING ANY MEDICAL DEVICE. (THE MEDICAL DEVICES AGENCY ‘EQUIPPED TO
CARE’
(2000) OUTLINES CRITERIA IN NURSING ASSESSMENT).
