ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a urological catheter equipped, at its distal portion, with a pair of balloons inflatable from the proximal end of the catheter. One balloon completely covers the distal tip of the catheter to serve, when inflated, as a cushion preventing damage to the patient's bladder, while the other balloon serves to anchor the catheter in sealing relation to the discharge passage of the bladder. A drainage opening in the catheter wall is disposed intermediate the balloons.
