Abstract:
Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a disabling bladder disorder that leads patients on an endless journey in search of treatment options to control their painful symptoms. Although there are some medical treatments available, no one treatment is completely effective. The Neuman model provides the rationale for the use of holistic prevention interventions with IC patients. Holistic interventions can help IC patients to retain, attain, and maintain system stability. A case study of 1 IC patient, who successfully used holistic approaches to achieve system stability, is described.
