OBJECTIVES To assess use of urinary collection devices (external, intermittent, and indwelling catheters; pads or briefs) and examine predictors of indwelling catheters in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs). DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING SNFs in California, Florida, Michigan, New York, and Texas. PARTICIPANTS All patients admitted to SNFs in 2003 who remained there for 1 year ...
Hospitalized adult patients are at increased risk for adverse outcomes, particularly when undergoing invasive procedures such as indwelling urinary catheterization. Nurses are essential in providing high quality, cost-effective, and safe health care. This mixed methods pilot study identified factors associated with nurses' adoption of an evidence-based practice to reduce the duration of cathete...
Aim and intended learning outcomes The aim of this article is to examine how nurses can broaden their scope of practice in the area of catheterisation, taking into consideration the principles stated by the UKCC in the Scope of Professional Practice ( 1992 ). After reading this article you should be able to: ■ Discuss the ways in which broadening the scope of practice in relation to urinary cat...
Ninety patients with spinal cord injury were managed by aseptic intermittent catheterization program I (preventing the over-distension of the bladder) and program II (allowing overdistension) in which recovery of bladder function and the clinical effects were comparatively investigated. Using program I, cases with positive BCR restored the automaticity of the bladder on average 8 weeks after in...
PURPOSE We compared the incidence of hematuria, pyuria and clinical urinary tract infection in patients who performed intermittent self-catheterization using a hydrophilic coated LoFric (Astra Tech AB, Mölndal, Sweden) or standard plastic catheter. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 62 male patients who performed intermittent self-catheterization to manage neurogenic bladder were randomized int...
BACKGROUND Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) frequently complicates cardiac catheterization, so the objectives of present study were to investigate the usefulness of cystatin C before catheterization and establish a cut-off level for CIN, and to examine the changes in cystatin C and several other markers in patients with and without CIN. METHODS AND RESULTS Prospective study of consecutive 8...
background a broad variety of fungi, especially candida species, are becoming increasingly common causes of urinary tract infections in hospital settings. objectives the current cross-sectional descriptive study aimed to determine the causative agents, risk factors and incidence rate of candiduria in critically ill patients, hospitalized in intensive care units (icus) of four iranian hospitals....
CONTEXT The synthetic, tension-free midurethral sling was introduced in the 1990s as a surgical treatment for women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Several similar products are now available. The authors generated data comparing clinical outcomes of two midurethral sling procedures. OBJECTIVE To compare clinical outcomes of two midurethral sling procedures currently used for the treat...
In order to investigate long-term effects of indwelling urinary catheters on renal functions, in 46 patients (27 male and 19 female) with ureterostomy or nephrostomy serum creatinine values were measured periodically. Average age of the patients was 60.6 years old. Duration of catheterization was more than 3 years (average 8.1 years). Renal dysfunction was defined as an elevation of serum creat...
The chronic use of urinary indwelling catheters is a common practice in the setting of long-term patient care and is associated with numerous complications. More awareness about urogenital trauma from urinary catheterization is needed, as it is as common as symptomatic urinary tract infections. There are a number of preventable measures that can be taken to decrease the risk of mechanical traum...
