Role of Bladderscan in Intermittent Catheterization in Patients with Neurogenic Bladder / 中国康复理论与实践

@# Objective To explore the role of Bladderscan in intermittent catheterization in patients with neurogenic bladder. Methods The data from 384 pairs of bladder volume measured with Bladderscan and catheterization methods respectively in 20 patients with neurogenic bladder were statistically analysed. Results The bladder volume were (405.7±119.3) ml and (371.4±122.7) ml from Bladderscan and catheterization respectively(P<0.01). A significant correlation between the two groups of data was demonstrated(r=0.91,P<0.01). Cumulative percentage of the difference between-50 ml and 50 ml was 75.5%. Conclusion Bladderscan may play an important role in the guide for intermittent catheterization in patients with neurogenic bladder.
