without spasms


Explanation:
Gad could be right. However, vibration catheters are generally used in blood vessels, to avoid the catheter getting clogged by blood clots. A common issue with urinary catheters is inducing bladder spasms. Depending on the rest of the sentence, it could mean that the catheter was inserted without bladder spasms.
