Tidal Irrigator

Pages 24-25 | Published online: 06 Jul 2016
 

Abstract

The irrigator described is positive in action and simple to operate. During siphonage the bladder empties first, then the container. With a continuous indwelling catheter, as used for paraplegics, tidal irrigation keeps the bladder practically free from infection. If the patient is unable to void after an operation, tidal irrigation will shorten the period of disability.
