Objective:
To analyze the execution of urinary catheterization technique of male delay in YouTube videos.
Methods:
This is an exploratory research with a quantitative approach, performed using the YouTube sharing site. The search of the videos was conducted in September 2014, using the controlled descriptor "urinary catheterization".
Results:
32 videos were analyzed, none were in accordance with the standards established in the literature; among the main errors highlight the absence of hand washing (78.1%), the absence of the medical recording (71.8%), the absence of cleaning and drying of the patient at the end of the procedure (71.8%), the incorrect technique during antisepsis (62.5%) and the absence of gloves changes (59.3%).
Conclusion:
Although the YouTube sharing video site is currently a widespread tool, there is an absence of videos that reproduce the technique according to what is recommended in the literature.

The kidneys are bean-shaped organs located in the retroperitoneal space, on either side of the vertebral column, between the T12 and L3 vertebrae. They are partially protected by the rib cage and surrounded by perirenal fat, which provides cushioning. They are responsible for urine formation and play critical roles in regulating blood pressure, electrolyte levels, and hormone production. The ureters...
