The Foley should be back flushed and irrigated, as the kidney is sending this to the bladder, or the walls of the bladder lining is braking down. Actually, it doesn't matter the cause, the Foley should be back flushed and i rrigated, with sterile waters. a tad bit of vinegar might help. The person's URO should also be made aware of this and make medical recommendations and orders. Perhaps the French should be enlarged. Best Wishes In a message dated 2/27/2013 11:30:20 A.M.

Hi All, I have a friend with an indwelling Foley that blocks with long stringy mucus. No infection. Any ideas? GA
