Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Urinary catheterization refers to the insertion of a catheter tube through the urethra and into the bladder to drain urine.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your catheter is a hollow tube that is inserted into your bladder to drain urine. It is inserted into the bladder through the urethra (the channel you normally urinate through) and is known as urethral catheterisation. Your catheter will not fall out because it is held in place by a small balloon.

Detailed explanation-3: -Indwelling, straight, and suprapubic urinary catheters should be inserted using aseptic technique and sterile equipment. Sterile gloves, drape, and sponges; an appropriate antiseptic solution for periurethral cleaning and a single-use packet of lubricant jelly should be used for insertion.

Detailed explanation-4: -A cystoscope is inserted into the urethra (the tube that carries pee out of the body) and passed into the bladder to allow a doctor or nurse to see inside. Small surgical instruments can also be passed down the cystoscope to treat some bladder problems at the same time.
