Abstract:
Despite recent advances in intermittent catheter features, evidence guiding how to best educate patients when beginning and continuing a program of intermittent catheterization remains sparse. To address this gap and guide best practice, a scoping review was conducted and a consensus panel of clinicians and researchers with expertise in intermittent catheterization was convened in person during December 2022 in Austin, Texas, to develop evidence and consensus-based statements guiding instruction of patients beginning intermittent self or assisted catheterization. This article describes the 15 consensus-based statements that can be used to guide best practice in patient education on intermittent catheterization.
