Bleeding into the bladder can be dangerous. This is one of the common emergencies that urologist face. When blood hits the bladder, it starts to coagulate and organize. This can prevent the urine from the bladder from exiting the bladder, because the blood clots block the pee hole, or the urethra. Therefore urologist is consulted, to place a large tube into the bladder, called a catheter, to manually irrigate and remove those blood clots from the bladder. The patient may also then be put on continuous bladder irrigation, which is a system that continuously puts saline into the bladder through one port on the Foley catheter, and allows that saline to wash the urine and blood clots from the bladder. That saline will exit the bladder through another port in that same tube.
