Intermittent self-catheterisation offers a safer alternative to indwelling catheters for managing bladder emptying issues, reducing infection risks. This method empowers patients with effective bladder management strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Patient Management

Background:

  • Poorly emptying bladders pose infection risks with traditional long-term indwelling catheters.
  • Intermittent self-catheterisation (ISC) presents an alternative management strategy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the principles of intermittent self-catheterisation.
  • To guide the identification of suitable candidates for ISC.
  • To discuss potential complications associated with ISC.

Main Methods:

  • Review of principles and practices for intermittent self-catheterisation.
  • Discussion on patient selection criteria for ISC.
  • Analysis of complications related to ISC.

Main Results:

  • ISC is a viable option for managing bladder emptying.

  • Clear criteria exist for selecting appropriate patients for ISC.
  • Potential complications can be identified and managed.
  • Conclusions:

    • Intermittent self-catheterisation is an effective and lower-risk method for bladder management compared to indwelling catheters.
    • Proper patient selection and understanding of complications are crucial for successful ISC implementation.
