Chapters Transcript Magic3 Go™ Female Hello, my name is Yolanda, and I'm a registered nurse with 30 years of experience specializing in rehabilitation. Today I will show you how to use your female magic 3G hydrophilic intermittent catheter. In order to use the magic 3G hydrophilic intravene catheter, you will need a catheter in its unopened package and materials to wash your hands and your urethral opening. Always wash hands prior to using your catheter. Next, open the catheter package by gripping the white V notch and tearing downward until the pink handle is fully exposed. Position comfortably with thighs spread apart. Clean the opening of the urethra and the surrounding area. Wipe from front to back to avoid fecal contamination. Wash your hands again. To insert a catheter, remove the catheter with the aid of an insertion handle and advance the catheter tip into the urethra. Slowly and gently insert the catheter into the urethra until urine begins to flow, approximately 1 to 1.5 inch or 2.5 to 3.8 centimeters. When urine stops flowing, begin to withdraw the catheter. It is recommended to slowly rotate the catheter during the withdrawal. Stop it each time urine begins to flow. Check the color, odor, and clarity of the urine. Any changes may need to be reported to a healthcare professional. Place the catheter back into the package and dispose in accordance with accepted medical practice and applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations. Do not flush down the toilet. Finish by washing your hands. Indications for use. The magic 3 go intermittent urinary catheter is intended for urological use only.
