How do you take urine output for unconscious patient?

To monitor urine output in an unconscious patient, a Foley catheter is typically inserted into the bladder through the urethra, allowing for continuous drainage of urine into a collection bag. It’s essential to ensure proper sterile technique during insertion to prevent infection. Regularly check the collection bag to measure and record the urine output, which can provide valuable information about the patient's kidney function and fluid status. Always follow hospital protocols and guidelines for catheter care and maintenance.
