Suprapubic Catheterization
Features included with LF04301, LF04302, and
LF04302EX.
To prepare the simulator for suprapubic
catheterization:
1. Attach the suprapubic stoma/bladder reservoir
to the twist lock quick connect located in the
abdomen of the simulator (See Figure 46).
2. Lubricate the suprapubic stoma/bladder
reservoir using the included Pump Spray
Lubricant.
3. Insert the suprapubic stoma/bladder reservoir
through the pelvis and into the abdomen (See
Figure 47). See Inset for exterior view.
Note: The suprapubic bladder will come installed in
the simulator. Insert the male or female genitalia.
4. Close the clamp on the Fluid Supply Bag (See
Figure 48) and fill with water or included
simulated urine. Recommended amount of fluid
to fill the Fluid Supply Bag is between 100 and
250 ML.
5. Hang the filled Fluid Supply Bag.
6. Attach the tubing quick connect on the end of
Fluid Supply Bag to the quick connect on the left

lower side of the simulator’s torso. (See Figure 49).
Note: Use distilled water or follow instructions on
the Simulated Urine.
7. Lubricate the catheter being used with the
Pump Spray Lubricant provided. The catheter
should be well lubricated and force should not
be used when placing the tube.
After completion of the exercise:
1. Close the clamp on the fluid supply bag tubing
and remove the suprapubic insert by reversing
the assembly instructions.
2. Disconnect the fluid supply bag via the quick
disconnect on the left side of the simulator.
3. Drain the bag and tubing thoroughly.
4. Rinse the reservoir and the suprapubic stoma to
remove any residual lubricant.
Fluids should be drained and the reservoir emptied
after every use. Ensure the reservoir is clean and dry
prior to storing.

Maintenance
To keep the urinary catheterization features of
this simulator operating efficiently, maintenance
is required at the beginning of catheterization
training for both the urinary catherization and
suprapubic reservoirs, with the included silicone
lubricant.
Before training:

Fig 49.
1. Remove the urinary or
suprapubic reservoir
from the torso or
genitalia.
2. Apply a generous
amount of silicone
lubricant onto the
end of a cotten
swab. Deposit grease
between the valve
membranes. (See
Figure 50).
