Research on the application of bladder volume evaluation under ultrasound radiography for early removal of indwelling catheter in critical patients / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective@#To evaluate the influence of bedside ultrasound on indwelling catheter removal and bladder function recovery for critically ill patients with long-term indwelling catheter.@*Methods@#Use random sampling to choose 92 patients during October 2018 to December 2018 as research objects, objects were allocated into observation group and control group by random digits table method with 46 cases each. All patients had their indwelling catheter clamped 72 hours after insertion as per routine practice, control group had clamp opened and indwelling catheter drained third hourly during the day and fourth hourly through the night; for patients in observation group, bladder volume were evaluated with USS scanner hourly, indwelling catheter was opened and drained when bladder urine volume was about 300 ml, use the shortest bladder-filling time as the interval for indwelling catheter opening time, increasing the interval by one hour through the night. the leakage rate, first urination time, first urination volume, bladder residual volume, indwelling catheter reinsertion rate, voluntary urination rate for patients from two groups were compared.@*Results@#The incidence of urinary leakage in the observation group was 7.14%(3/42),which lower than that in the control group (25.58%, 11/43), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.251, P<0.05). The residual urine volume in the bladder was 16 (8.50, 37.00) ml in the observation group, which lower than that in the control group 41 (13.75, 130.25) ml, the difference was statistically significant (t=2.103, P<0.05). The rate of self-urination was 57.15%(24/42) in the observation group, which higher than that in the control group (34.88%,15/43), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.24, P<0.05). Induced urination rate and urethral replacement rate were 7.14%(3/42), 11.9%(5/42), 30.95%(13/42) in the observation group and 9.3%(4/43), 16.28%(7/43), 48.84%(21/43) in the control group respectively. There was no significant difference between the two groups (χ2= 0.131, 0.335, 2.832, P > 0.05). The first urination time was (144.66± 66.13) in the observation group and (179.55± 87.50) in the control group, respectively. There was no significant difference between the two groups(t= 1.623, P > 0.05).@*Conclusions@#The use of bedside USS scan to evaluate the bladder volume of critical patients with indwelling catheter can help facilitate early indwelling catheter removal and encourage patients to regain bladder function.

Clinical study on post-stroke urinary retention treated with acupuncture at the twelve-well points and bladder function training / 中国针灸

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the methods for the therapeutic effect improvement in the treatment of post-stroke urinary retention.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Sixty-three patients of post-stroke urinary retention were randomized into an observation group (32 cases) and a control group (31 cases). The routine clinical medication of neurology and basic rehabilitation were adopted in the two groups. Additionally, in the control group, the intermittent urinary catheterization and bladder function training were applied. The duration and frequency of catheterization were determined by the autonomic urination and residual urine volume every day. In the observation group, on the basis of the treatment as the control group, acupuncture was applied to the twelve-well points in the sequence offlowing among the twelve meridians [Shaoshang (LU 11), Shangyang (LI 1), Lidui (ST 45), Yinbai (SP 1), Shaochong (HT 9), Shaoze (SI 1), Zhiyin (BL 67), Yongquan (KI 1), Zhongchong (PC 9), Guanchong (TE 1), Zuqiaoyin (GB 44) and Dadun (LR 1)]. Acupuncture was given once a day, 20 treatments were required. In 20 treatments, the clinical therapeutic effects and the residual urine volume were observed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The total effective rate was 90.6% (29/32) in the observation group, better than 67.7% (21/31) in the control group (<0.01)). After treatment, the residue urine volume was all reduced apparently in the patients of the two groups (both<0.01). The result of the residue urine volume in the observation group was lower apparently than that in the control group (<0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Acupuncture at the-well points in the sequence offlowing among meridians combined with bladder function training achieve the apparent therapeutic effects on post-stroke urinary retention. The results are better than those achieved by the routine western medicine with bladder function training involved.</p>

Effect of initiative bladder function training on uroschesis and urinary tract infections after caesarean section / 现代临床护理

Objective To evaluate the effect of initiative bladder function training on uroschesis and urinary tract infections after caesarean section. Methods Toally 200 puerperas with caesarean section and indwelling catheter were divided into observation group and control group, 100 cases in each group. The control group was given passive bladder function training, and the observation group was given initiative bladder function training. The two groups were compared in terms of postoperative infections in the urinary tract, time for first micturition, residual urine volume and micturition effect. Result After intervention, the rate of urinary tract infections in the observation group was lower than that of the control one , the time for and effect of first micturition were shorter and better than those of in the control group, the residual urine volume was shorter (P<0.05). Conclusion The initiative bladder function training by exercising abdominal muscle combined with levator ani muscle exercise can effectively promote the recovery of bladder function and reduce uroschesis and the rate of postoperative urinary tract infections.

Effect of bladder function training on urinary incontinence for patients with mild cognitive impairment after radical prostatectomy / 现代临床护理

Objective To explore the effect of bladder function training on urinary incontinence for patients with mild cognitive impairment after radical prostatectomy . Methods A skill training group was established to provide Cognitive and bladder function training for 48 patients with mild cognitive impairment after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Three months after training, the patients were observed in terms of occurrence of urinary incontinence, quality of life and self-efficacy. Result After training, the occurrence of urinary incontinence significantly fell, while quality of life and self-efficacy were significantly improved as compared to pro-training (P<0.05). Conclusion Cognitive and bladder function training can exert positive impacts on self-efficacy and quality of life of patients with mild cognitive impairment after radial prostatectomy.

Influence of bladder function and behavior change training on urinary retention after epidural anesthesia / 中国实用护理杂志

Objectives To investigate the effect of bladder function and behavior change training on urinary retention after epidural anesthesia and the method to decrease it. Methods 265 patients receiv-ing operation under epidural anesthesia were divided into two groups, the experimental group (132 cases) and the control group (133 cases). The experimental group was further divided into 3 groups: one to two days of training, 3 to 4 days of training and above 5 days of training preoperation. The experimental group carried out bladder function and behavior change training, but the control group never undertook any train-ing. After operation the data were analyzed. Results The incidence of urinary retention was significantly different between the experimental group and the control group (P<0.01);The time length of the training before operation aorrelated with incidence of urinary retention(P<0.05). Conclusions Bladder function and behavior change training contributed to decrease urinary retention after epidural anesthesia.The training time and incidence of urinary retention showed inverse proportion. This could decrease the opportunity of suffering from urethral catheterization and urinary tract infection.
