Filter by:Postoperative urinary retention has been defined as the inability to void despite having fluid in the bladder during the postoperative period. Urinary retention after pelvic reconstructive surgery requiring indwelling catheter or self-catheterization usage occurs in approximately 30-60% of patients postoperatively. Our prior retrospective chart review reviewing postoperative urinary retention rates after pelvic reconstructive surgery demonstrated postoperative urinary retention after a sacrospinous vaginal vault suspension to be approximately 78.9%. Many women consider being discharged home with a Foley catheter to be a surgical complication and describe catheter use as the worst aspect of their surgery. Indwelling catheters are the leading cause of hospital-acquired urinary tract infections (UTIs), are often a source of embarrassment and inconvenience for patients, and often require additional office visits and healthcare utilization. Tizanidine is a muscle relaxant which can work to alleviate this spasm and, theoretically, prevent postoperative urinary retention. Tizanidine also works as an alpha-adrenergic receptor blocker which can increase smooth muscle relaxation around the urethra specifically and, theoretically, improve urine flow. Postoperative urinary retention is extremely common after pelvic reconstructive surgery involving a sacrospinous vaginal vault suspension and is extremely bothersome to patients. Tizanidine is a low-risk, well tolerated, cost-effective medication. No study to date has evaluated preoperative administration of tizanidine for postoperative urinary retention.
The development of postoperative urinary retention (PUR) is a significant complication in patients undergoing treatment due to orthopedic surgery. In particular, it is reported that the incidence rate of PUR after spinal anesthesia is in the range of 6-60%. It is stated in the literature that PUR can be prevented by reviewing factors such as bladder physical examination, fluid intake status, anesthesia type, bladder discharge time/condition of patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. For this purpose, our study showed that these patients had globular physical examination screening and postoperative 2-6. it aims to prevent postoperative urinary retention by applying hot and cold Decontamination to the bladders of patients who cannot urinate spontaneously between hours.
The goal of this study is to examine the efficacy of acupuncture in the management of acute postoperative urinary retention. Clinical question: Is acupuncture efficacious for postoperative urinary retention after hemorrhoidectomy compared with sham acupuncture and neostigmine. Study design: The participants who undergo hemorrhoidectomy and report postoperative urinary retention will receive one session of acupuncture or sham acupuncture or one injection of 1-mg neostigmine. The primary outcome was the time to first urination after surgery.
The Investigator will perform a single-institution randomized double-blinded controlled trial comparing intraoperative Sugammadex vs. standard dose of glycopyrrolate/neostigmine combination for participants undergoing a total vaginal hysterectomy with or without pelvic organ prolapse procedures under general endotracheal anesthesia.
Urinary retention is a known complication following surgical procedures, with a theoretical increased risk in patients receiving neuraxial anesthesia due to a decreased ability to sense bladder distension. Urinary retention is associated with adverse events including bladder atony, increased post void residuals, and postoperative urinary tract infection. Treatment of urinary retention involves intermittent or indwelling urinary catheter placement, both of which are associated with an increased prevalence of postoperative urinary tract infection. There currently is no consensus whether the use of a urinary catheter in elective joint arthroplasty with neuraxial anesthesia decreases the risk of urinary retention. The prevalence of retention reported in the literature varies widely with reports anywhere from 0% to 75% in patients with early removal of a catheter or after procedures performed without a catheter. The goal of this study is to determine whether the routine use of an indwelling urinary catheter decreases the rate of postoperative urinary retention in patients undergoing elective joint arthroplasty.
The primary aim of this study will be to compare the rate of postoperative urinary retention between patients receiving Sugammadex and those receiving traditional reversal agents
The primary objective of this project is to compare the rate of postoperative voiding dysfunction in two voiding trials (the retrograde-fill technique versus the spontaneous-fill technique) after midurethral sling (MUS) procedures with tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) without any concomitant surgery.
The purpose of this study is to compare the prevalence of postoperative urinary retention between retained and non-retained urinary catheter in total knee arthorplasty with epidural anesthesia
This study is to determine if self-discontinuation of transurethral foley catheters in patients diagnosed with postoperative urinary retention (POUR), which is defined as the continued need for catheterization, following impatient pelvic organ prolapse surgery is non-inferior to office-discontinuation.
Double blinded, randomized controlled prospective study looking at 2 preoperative doses of Tamsulosin an alpha-adrenergic blocker in preventing post-operative urinary retention. A previous study was conducted called "Effectiveness of tamsulosin inprevention of postoperative urinary retention: a randomized double-blind-placebo controlled study" This study involved a tertiary care center involving mostly urological surgical procedures. We look to specifically look at inguinal hernia surgeries in males. The aim of this study is to compare the prophylactic effect of tamsulosin with placebo on postoperative urinary retention. The drug is FDA approved for benign prostatic hypertrophy and urinary retention. It is on formulary at Genesys. Currently there is no standard procedure of prophylactic tamsulosin for urinary retention. Most often post operative patients are given tamsulosin to augment smooth muscle relaxation and spontaneous voiding if the patient is having urinary retention post operatively. We often straight catheterize patients once and start tamsulosin with the goal of avoiding urinary retention and future straight catheterizations or placement of foley catheters
