For a catheter insertion procedure, essential supplies typically include a sterile catheter kit, which contains a catheter, lubricant, antiseptic solution, gloves, drapes, a syringe with sterile water for inflating the balloon if it's a Foley catheter, and a drainage bag. Additional supplies may include sterile gauze, a specimen container if urine sampling is required, and adhesive tape or a securement device to hold the catheter in place. Proper aseptic technique and preparation are crucial to prevent infection.
