2.  Be sure to have good visualization and access to the area.
3.  Remove the protective cap from the catheter.
4.  Unroll the catheter onto the shaft.

7.  Secure the tubing leading to either a leg bag or gravity drainage bag to the individual's thigh to prevent unnecessary   tugging on the catheter.
