A drainage catheter with a distal member end that is lockable in a desired loop configuration for retaining the catheter in a body cavity such as the bladder. The lockable drainage catheter includes a flexible tension member for drawing the distal member end into a loop. The tension member extends through a lockable connector positioned about the proximal member end. The lockable connector includes a resilient material sleeve with a sleeve passage extending longitudinally therethrough for positioning the tension member therein. The sleeve is positioned in a passage of the connector adjacent a channel wherein a pivotedly attached lever is positioned. When the lever is pivoted toward the connector into a fixed position, a cam surface of the lever compresses the sleeve and locks thereabout to maintain the loop formed in the distal member end.
