Use of the Circular Grip During Intermittent Catheterization / 대한비뇨기과학회지

A prospective study was carried out on the efficacy of a circular grip which we devised to facilitate a non-sterile intermittent catheterization. The series included 16 females, the mean follow-up time being 7 months. Most patients were suffering from neurogenic bladder disorders and bladder retention after operation. All of them used the circular grip during intermittent catheterization and continued to undergo intermittent catheterization. The technique of the use of the circular grip during intermittent catheterization was usually learnt easily and provided reassurance to the patient and family about intermittent catheterization.
