A Vanarthos trauma urethral catheter includes a central portion located between proximal and distal ends of the catheter so that, when the catheter is in an operative position, the central portion extends within a patient's urethra. A plurality of openings extend through the surface of the central portion of the catheter to provide fluid communication between a first fluid channel formed within the catheter and the urethra. The catheter also includes a distal inlet which, when the catheter is in an operative position, is located within the bladder and provides fluid communication between the bladder and a second fluid channel formed within the catheter. The first fluid channel extends from the central portion of the catheter to a first proximal inlet formed in the proximal portion of the catheter and the second fluid channel extends from the distal inlet to a proximal outlet. The first proximal inlet and the proximal outlet are located outside the body of the patient when the catheter is in an operative position.
