Postop Catheterization for Urinary Retention

Treatment of Postoperative Urinary Retention - WHAT DO WOMEN WANT?

This study investigates patient's preference and satisfaction with choice of catheterization after surgical urogynecological procedures.

Study Overview

• Status: Terminated
• Conditions: Urinary Retention

Detailed Description

Preoperatively, the enrolled patient receives information about risks and benefits of three ways of bladder catheterization as means of management of postoperative urinary retention. Based on this information, the patient chooses her preferred way of postoperative catheterization in case she experiences acute urinary retention after surgery. After the surgery, those patients requiring catheterization postoperatively evaluate their experience in a postoperative questionnaire.
