Suprapubic catheterization involves placing a drainage tube into the urinary bladder just above the pubic symphysis. This is typically performed for individuals who cannot drain their bladder via the urethra. Suprapubic catheterization offers an alternative means to drain the urinary bladder when other methods are not clinically feasible, undesirable, or impossible. This activity reviews the technique of suprapubic bladder catheterization, its indications, contraindications, and the role of the interprofessional team in the management of patients who are unable to void urine.
