Abstract:
'Bladder washout' is a misnomer, as it is the catheter that is being washed. Urinary catheters can cause significant physical and psychological problems. Although nurses are responsible for urinary catheter maintenance, there is a lack of knowledge in some areas. Some urological practices have been based on historical practice rather than evidence.
