Technic.—After the ureteral catheter has beenpassed and a sufficient quantity of urine collectedfrom the kidney, the syringe is attached to theureteral catheter; salt solution is drawn up into.

A glass catheter with rubber tubing attached isinserted into the bladder alongside the ureteralcatheter and the solution, after flushing the pelvisof the kidney, escapes through this into a bowl. After a pint of salt solution has been used, asolution of bichlorid 1 : 50,000 is drawn up intothe syringe, injected into the kidney, and allowedto remain in the bladder. Silver nitrate solutionin varying strengths is often used. Patients under treatment for cystitis or pye-litis must not lie flat on their backs when theyreturn to bed.
