This cost effective Value Set contains a basic version of each of the Male and Female
Catheterisation Trainers.
These basic versions do not contain suprapubic bungs (60168).
The Catheterisation Trainers allows the trainee to learn urinary catheterisation techniques. The
feel of the catheter passing along the urethra into the bladder corresponds closely to real life.

Components
Note
Do not leave catheters
inserted in the Trainer
or attempt to remove a
catheter which has an
inflated balloon.
Catheterisation is a wet
process. Do not set up
the product near electrical
appliances or items
damaged by water.

Place the drip tray onto the work
surface
Place the pelvic base onto the drip tray
with the genitalia facing forwards
Screw the two parts of the metal fluid
bag stand together
Insert one end of the stand into the hole
at the back of the drip tray. Ensure that
the arm at the top of the stand is facing
forwards

5
Tighten the red turnscrew until the
stand is securely in position
Hang the fluid bag on the top of stand
Connect the fluid bag to the bladder
feed tube (with the white connector, at
the back of the catheterisation unit)
Open the cap on the top of the fluid
bag and place the air vent tube (tube
without connector, at the back of the
Catheterisation Unit) into the bag ensuring
the end is positioned at the very bottom
Should the connector fail to attach to the fluid bag the connector mechanism may
need resetting. See ‘Troubleshooting’ on page 14

Fill the 30ml bottle cap with Milton (x2)
Any air in the bladder will vent out of
the tube into the bag. When the air
bubbles stop, the bladder is completely
full. Top up the bag to the 1 litre mark to
provide realistic fluid pressure.
The Trainer is ready to use
Dispense 60ml into 1 litre of water in
the plastic jug
Fill the bag with water. The bladder will
start filling

7
Inject 1-2 ml of lubricant into the urethral
orifice
Squeeze some of the lubricant into the
syringe
The Trainer is now ready for catheter insertion
1 2
Preparing for catheterisation
The water-based lubricant is used to simulate sterile anaesthetic gel (Instillagel®)
which is used prior to catheterisation

8
Insert the syringe into the urethral opening
and inject
Fill the syringe with water
The catheter should be flushed through with water after each training session
as the gel can sometimes block the end of the catheter
1 2
Flushing lubricant out
At the end of each training session the urethra should be flushed through with
water, as lubricant can dry inside it and impair the catheterisation process. This
procedure can also be applied to a blocked urethra during use

9
Each Aseptic Catheterisation Sleeve consists of
2 parts: large (representing nonsterile outer
packaging) and small (representing sterile inner
packaging), as per normal catheter packaging
Open the inner sleeve by pulling apart
the VelcroTM tabs
Hold the sleeve at the seams and
squeeze it lightly so that it opens fully
Run the other hand down the seams so that
the sleeve opens fully all the way down

The Aseptic Catheterisation Sleeves are intended to simulate the sterile packaging urinary
catheters are supplied in. The sleeves are reusable, providing a cost effective solution for
repeatedly practising the aseptic technique required for urethral catheterisation

10
Hold the sleeve upright in a semi-open fist
and feed the catheter down into it
Place the sleeve on the work surface
and secure the VelcroTM tabs
With the outer sleeve flat on the work
surface, feed the inner sleeve into it
Seal the VelcroTM tabs.
