Urinary Retention: Catheter Drainage Bag or Catheter Valve?
1Department of Urology, Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, Glasgow, UK.
Abstract:
The management of patients with intractable urinary incontinence presents as a challenging priority in the ageing population. To preserve the antibacterial mechanisms of the bladder, a urine collection that enables the bladder to fill and empty regularly and completely, should be used. This mimics the action of the healthy bladder. We compared the success rates of two widely used urinary-collection systems (catheter with drainage bag or a catheter valve) at our institution for those patients undergoing a trial of void.
