“Rex” Male Dog Catheterization Simulator

Male Canine Urinary Catheterization

Urinary catheterization combines an understanding of male canine anatomy with careful catheter handling and controlled advancement. Rex allows students to connect anatomical knowledge directly with the physical steps required for catheter placement. Learners can work through positioning, identify the relevant anatomy, handle and introduce the catheter, and follow its path through the urinary tract. Repetition provides opportunities to refine technique and understand how alignment, resistance, and catheter control affect successful placement. The focused training format makes Rex useful for introducing urinary catheterization, reinforcing procedural sequence, and evaluating technique as students progress through veterinary skills training.
