What happens if you CAN'T DEFLATE BALLOON TO REMOVE FOLEY?
If you are unable to deflate a balloon to remove a Foley catheter, you should contact a healthcare provider immediately for assistance. Trying to forcefully remove the catheter without deflating the balloon can cause injury or damage to the urethra. It is important to seek professional help to safely remove the catheter.
What happens if you prick the balloon without water?
If you prick a balloon without water, the air inside the balloon will escape rapidly through the hole created by the prick. The balloon will quickly deflate and likely make a popping sound.
How does a needle pass through a balloon without popping it?
A needle can pass through a balloon without popping it because the rubber of the balloon is stretchy and can temporarily seal around the needle, preventing air from escaping and causing the balloon to pop.
What is the weight of a balloon without air grams?
The weight of a balloon without air is approximately the weight of the material the balloon is made from. This weight can vary depending on the size and material of the balloon, but it is generally very light, often just a few grams.
Does a balloon without air weigh the same filled with air?
No, a balloon without air would weigh less than a balloon filled with air. The weight of an object is determined by the mass of the object and without the air filling the balloon, there is less mass present, therefore less weight.

Why is a patient who is pronounced clinically brain dead given a syringe shot when removed from life support?
People are NOT given a shot with a syringe after being pronounced clinically brain dead. There are several instances I can think of that you could think a nurse was giving an injection to someone who is dead.Let me explain:If a person is on a ventilator, the tube in their mouth/throat is held in place with a balloon that is inflated. The only way to remove the tube is by deflating the balloon. A syringe--without a needle--is inserted into a special valve that allows the balloon to deflate.The same process deflates the balloon that holds a urinary catheter in the bladder; the nurse draws back on the syringe to remove the normal saline in the balloon.IVs in arms would just be removed without flushing the site with Normal Saline (NS).Even when your loved one is pronounced dead, the family can still ask a nurse to explain what she is doing, whether it is removing a trach, an IV, or catheter. ASK.
How can I attach a balloon arch to a wall without causing any damage?
You can attach a balloon arch to a wall without causing damage by using removable adhesive hooks or clips specifically designed for walls. These hooks can hold the arch in place securely without leaving any marks or residue when removed.

What happens when you prick a balloon at the end opposite the opening?
You may hear a bang and the balloon shreds itself. Alternatively, depending upon the properties of the rubber, the balloon may become airborne with the knot leading the way. But if you place a piece of cellulose tape on the balloon, you may puncture it through that without the bang!
What happens to a hot air balloon when the burner is turned off?
When the burner is turned off, the air inside the hot air balloon starts to cool down. As the air cools, the balloon loses lift and begins to slowly descend back to the ground. Without the burner heating the air inside the balloon, it will eventually land.

How is foley catheter removed?
RelaxRemoving a foley catheter from a man is no different than a woman. Practice standard precautions while performing this. 1. Take a 10-ml syringe and deflate the catheter bulb. After pulling back on the plunger to obtain fluid, leave the syringe attached. Sometimes additional fluid will continue to slowly leak out of the balloon. Do not be concerned if you do not get more than about 5 - 6 mls, the remainder is in the catheter tubing.2. Take a small washcloth and hold it under the penis at the meatus. As you remove the catheter some urine may flow out with it, and you will want to catch this from wetting the patient or bed.3. Inform the patient, "I'm going to pull this out... take a few deep breaths". The removal is not normally painful.4. Pull out quickly and smoothly. If urine was still in the drainage bag measure and empty, then dispose of tubing and bag in the biohazardous trash.Ayraayra: actually if you don't get the full amount of fluid back into the syringe you should be concerned. Chances are it's still in the balloon and if you try to pull the catheter out while the balloon is still partially inflated you could end up doing tissue damage. If you don't get all the fluid out try again.
How do you increase the size of balloon without blowing further when the mouth of the balloon is tied?
You can increase the size of a balloon without blowing into it by gently stretching the sides of the balloon with your fingers. As you stretch the balloon, the air molecules inside will spread out, causing the balloon to inflate further. Be careful not to stretch it too much to avoid popping the balloon.
