Catheters greater than size 16 F have been associated with patient discomfort and urine bypassing. A size 12 catheter has been successfully used in children and in female patients with urinary restriction.
It is a type of catheter most commonly used to catheterise patients. There are two types of catheter, one for males which is slightly longer and another for females which is smaller in size
It could be that the catheter used was too large for your urethra. The hospital I go to uses a size 16 catheter, which always causes pain for me. Or you could possibly have gotten a bladder infection from the insertion of the catheter.

The diameter in millimeters of the catheter can be determined by dividing the French size by 3. 40 Fr = 11.24mm

Asess and educate the patient and/or family members, assess the patient's anatomy for proper size foley and any anomalies, tell pt. what you are doing as you perform catheterization; keep sterile, using a prep agent which is not harmful to the patient;place the foley and wait for urine drainage then inflate the balloon with the prescribed amount of saline; properly anchor the foley and maintain the drainage system at the proper depth. Re-educate the patient as needed.
It is common practice to specify the pump suction line one size larger than the pump discharge line in order to increase the Net Positive Suction Head available (NPSHA) to the pump. A smaller suction line the same pipe size as the discharge line would result in more pressure drop in the suction line and reduce the amount of head available to the suction side of the pump. This in turn would result in an operating point closer to cavitation of the pump.
Doesn't really sound like a question. But your swimming pool suction is determined by the size of your pump. There are other factors like the pipe distance and diameter, but it basically comes down to the size of your pump.
When choosing a hospital bed for a patient, there are several factors to consider such as the patient's medical condition, size and weight, and mobility needs. 1. Medical condition: The patient's medical condition will determine the type of bed that is most suitable for them. For example, if the patient has a pressure ulcer, an adjustable air mattress bed would be a good option as it can help reduce the risk of pressure ulcers. 2. Size and weight: The patient's size and weight will determine the weight capacity of the bed. It is important to choose a bed that can accommodate the patient's weight and size comfortably. 3. Mobility needs: The patient's mobility needs will determine the type of bed that is most suitable for them. For example, if the patient is able to get in and out of bed independently, a manual bed would be a good option. However, if the patient requires assistance with mobility, an electric bed would be a better choice. 4. Other features: There are also other features to consider when choosing a hospital bed, such as the bed height, bed rails, and the option for a bedside table. It is important to consult with the patient's healthcare provider or occupational therapist to determine the most suitable bed for their specific needs.
