A nephrostomy catheter is a tube inserted into your kidney. The tube comes out through the side. The tube allows your urine to flow out through the kidney directly. It is important that the nephrostomy catheter stays in place. Care of the nephrostomy catheter is also very important.

In this Divi, patients are given information about the nephrostomy catheter and its care. They are also given more information about using the day bag and the night bag.
