What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time to Spontaneous Void
Time Frame: 8 weeks
Each participant underwent a void trial post-operatively by backfilling their bladder with 200cc normal saline at the conclusion of the case and removing the foley. Patients needed to void at least 100cc to be considered to have "passed" their void trial.
8 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time to Discharge From the Post-anesthesia Care Unit
Time Frame: 8 weeks
The time from the patient leaving the OR to the time they were discharged home from the Post-anesthesia care unit was recorded to determine the Time to discharge.
8 weeks
