K-pouch intubating

BodoniMember

I have a K-pouch that probably has a bit of a slipped valve. If I intubate every 6 hours or so, I have no leaks. If I go 8 - 9 hours I may get a small leak. I use the Medena FR30 cath. If I have trouble getting the cath in, it may 'kink' at one of the larger side holes. When this happens to me, I may as well toss the cath.

It seems to 'remember' where it kinked. A tube lasts me about 2 weeks. If I run cold water on the tube and stiffen it a bit it goes in a little easier. I use lots of lube too.
