Event Description

The customer reports that the patient had a foley catheter placed due to difficulty voiding after previous surgeries.Less than 12 hours post insertion, the nurse tried to deflate the balloon with a syringe, but the balloon would not deflate.The nurse then tried to cut the fill port and the balloon still did not drain.A urology md was brought to the department to try to manipulate the foley to get it to drain, however, was unable to do so.The patient had to be taken into surgery to have the foley catheter removed.
