Hoses coming off

I've had trouble with the hoses coming off my double balloon rectal catheter while inserted, is there any remedy for this or is it just a bad hose?

I am not sure what you mean by your saying hose comming off. Is the hose slipping from the addaptor that connects the bardes to the hose that is giving you the problem redrun

Yes, thats what I meant to say.

Whenever the hose starts to slide off the adapter, I use a plastic tie, which prevents a lot of accidents.

Ty Rabs or plastic ties as mentioned above from home depo. Besides holding the hose on the barb they have many other uses.

Maybe the connector is the wrong size.

The I. D. of the double balloon rectal catheter is larger than the ID on most bag/hose combos. An adapter that addresses this discrepancy is avail from the double balloon rectal catheter sellers. Another fix is to use a nozzle as the adapter; the Klystra nozzle set will do the job. And of course there's always Home Depot.

Just use a wider diameter hose barb so it fits more snugly in the catheter and hose. Its a very simple solution.

Super simple solution, cut off the first inch or so of the hose giving you an "unstretched" new end. Should fit like it was new again
