(Audio) UroPateint Episode 29: Demystifying Intermittent Catheterization
from UroPatient · host UroPatient.com
Intermittent catheterization is a medical procedure used to empty the bladder by inserting a catheter temporarily and then removing it once the bladder is drained. This technique is often employed for individuals with urinary retention, spinal cord injuries, or other conditions affecting bladder control. By performing this procedure intermittently, patients can maintain better bladder health and reduce the risk of infections compared to indwelling catheters. It's a manageable and effective solution that promotes independence and enhances the quality of life for many.#IntermittentCatheterization#BladderHealth#MedicalProcedure#Urology#PatientCare*The information provided on the site is for educational purposes only, and does not substitute for professional medical advice.
