Cook Kaye Nephrostomy Tamponade Balloon G14343
Kaye Nephrostomy Tamponade Balloon G14343 is a balloon-tipped catheter used in urology for nephrostomy drainage. It helps drain urine from the kidney when normal flow is blocked. It is used especially after procedures like percutaneous stone removal to prevent bleeding.
This catheter is designed to provide effective nephrostomy drainage and dynamic tamponade of the nephrostomy tract after surgery, reducing the risk of hemorrhage following nephrolithotomy or percutaneous stone removal. The inflatable balloon at the tip allows the catheter to block the tract gently while the kidney drains, helping stabilise the tract and kidney access. It also allows drainage from the renal pelvis via the catheter lumen, maintaining internal or external drainage depending on procedure needs. Because it combines tract tamponade with drainage and is radiopaque, it helps clinicians place and monitor it under fluoroscopy for precise positioning.
