The draining tube of a catheter should be coiled to prevent kinking or obstruction, which can impede the flow of fluids and lead to complications such as infection or urinary retention. Coiling also helps to accommodate movement and positioning of the patient, reducing strain on the tube. Additionally, it facilitates easier management and reduces the risk of accidental dislodgment. Overall, proper coiling contributes to the effectiveness and safety of catheter use.
