Abstract
A female urethral catheterization assist device and method of use. The female urethral catheterization assist device includes a pair of lateral arms pivotally connected at a middle point that enables a user to selectively open and close the lateral arms. A handle is positioned at one end of each lateral arm and a paddle is disposed at an opposing end. The paddles extend in the same direction and form an interior lateral side. Each paddle is adapted to engage with a labia minora and majora, to allow for the insertion of a female urethral catheter.
