Urinary Tract Calculi VI: Surgical Management

147
Procedures for Kidney StonesMedical intervention is necessary when kidney stones or renal calculi are too large to pass spontaneously (typically greater than 5 millimeters) when stones are accompanied by symptomatic infection (such as fever or pyelonephritis), when they impair kidney function, or when they cause persistent symptoms like severe pain, nausea, or urinary retention. Additionally, patients with only one kidney or those who cannot be treated with medical management also require...

Nursing Assessment of the Genitourinary System II: Inspection and Palpation

465
The nursing assessment of the genitourinary (GU) system involves a systematic inspection and palpation to identify abnormalities in the kidneys, bladder, and surrounding structures.InspectionMouth: Inspect for signs of kidney dysfunction, such as stomatitis (inflammation of the mouth) and ammonia breath, which may occur in advanced kidney disease due to the buildup of urea, breaking down into ammonia.Skin: Check for pallor, which could indicate anemia caused by kidney disease. Look for...

Nursing Assessment of the Genitourinary System I: Health History

219
The genitourinary system is critical to maintaining fluid balance, waste elimination, and reproductive function. Nurses play a vital role in assessing this system, beginning with a thorough health history. This process involves gathering patient information, identifying risk factors, and recognizing symptoms of genitourinary disorders. Early detection is vital for timely interventions and management.1. Gathering Patient InformationA complete health history includes the patient’s personal,...

Urinary Tract Calculi III: Medical Management

90
The diagnosis of renal calculi involves several imaging techniques, including non-contrast CT scans and ultrasound. These methods help visualize kidney stones, assess their size and location, and detect possible obstructions. Additionally, Measuring urine pH is useful for diagnosing specific stone types, such as struvite (alkaline pH) and uric acid stones (acidic pH). Cystine stones are primarily linked to cystinuria, a genetic condition. A urinalysis helps detect blood in the urine (hematuria)...

AssessmentSubjective Data: Obtain a detailed health history, including any recent or chronic urinary tract infections, periods of immobilization, previous episodes of renal calculi, and medical conditions such as gout, benign prostatic hyperplasia, or hyperparathyroidism. Review the medication history for drugs that may influence stone formation, including allopurinol, analgesics, loop diuretics, or thiazide diuretics. Document the use of long-term indwelling catheters and any past surgical...

Summary

Urinary retention after AdVance Sling placement is uncommon. A longer postoperative catheterization period may reduce acute urinary retention (AUR) risk, as preoperative urodynamics did not predict AUR.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Patient Outcomes

Background:

  • Post-prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affects many patients.
  • The AdVance™ Sling is a surgical option for SUI.
  • Urinary retention is a potential complication of sling procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify risk factors for urinary retention after AdVance™ Sling placement.
  • To evaluate the role of preoperative urodynamic studies in predicting urinary retention.
  • To assess the impact of bladder contractility on postoperative outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Multi-institutional retrospective review of 391 patients undergoing AdVance™ Sling placement for post-prostatectomy SUI (2007-2019).
  • Acute urinary retention (AUR) defined by inability to void or elevated post-void residual (PVR) requiring catheterization.
  • Preoperative urodynamic studies were used to assess bladder contractility.

Main Results:

  • 14.1% of patients experienced AUR; 1.5% had chronic retention.
  • No significant difference in preoperative urodynamic parameters (PdetQmax, Qmax, PVR, bladder contractility index) between patients with or without AUR.
  • Impaired bladder contractility was not predictive of AUR. Shorter time to postoperative urethral catheter removal predicted AUR (OR 0.83, p=0.003).

Conclusions:

  • Chronic urinary retention is uncommon after AdVance™ Sling placement and acute retention is typically self-limiting.
  • No demographic or urodynamic factors predicted AUR.
  • A longer duration of postoperative catheterization may decrease the incidence of AUR.
