Abstract:
The urologist is frequently called upon to remove a nondeflating Foley catheter. The basic strategies to accomplish removal involve relieving obstruction of the blocked balloon port channel, dissolving the rubber balloon chemically or rupturing the balloon percutaneously. A less invasive technique of balloon rupture in the female patient, using a peri-catheter urethral route, is described.

01:27Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition
Parenteral Nutrition (PN) delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It is commonly used for individuals with severe digestive disorders or conditions that prevent normal nutrient absorption.
PN can be administered through two primary routes:
1. Central Parenteral Nutrition (CPN):
CPN involves delivering a high concentration of nutrients through a large vein. This is typically achieved using a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) or,...
