Short-term urinary bladder drainage with the use of urethral Foley catheters is practiced frequently in hospitals throughout the country. We studied the urethral and bladder cellular proliferation after exposure to latex, silicone-coated latex, and 100% silicone catheters. Fifty-one male patients were studied; no differences in acute cellular reaction could be detected among the three different catheter materials. Promotion of all-silicone products in hospital use may be unwarranted.
在全国的医院中，使用尿道Foley导尿管进行短期膀胱引流是很常见的做法。我们研究了暴露于乳胶、硅胶涂层乳胶和100%硅胶导尿管后尿道和膀胱细胞的增殖情况。对51名男性患者进行了研究；在三种不同的导管材料之间未检测到急性细胞反应的差异。在医院使用中推广全硅胶产品可能是没有必要的。
