 1. significance of ureteral catheter for the first week.

Information about the ureteral catheter, which will be in place for the first week, is important. Karaya gum products are not used for urinary appliances because urine breaks down the karaya. Pouches are changed only every 4 to 6 days to prevent skin irritation. The pouch is best changed in the morning.
