Intermittent catheterization : which is the optimal technique ?
WYNDAELE JJ
SPINAL CORD , 2002, vol. 40, n° 9, p. 432-437 Doc n°: 105751 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : AH22 - VESSIE NEUROGENE Literature review to evaluate the practical techniques used for intermittent catheterization (IC) and intermittent self-catheterization (ISC). OBJECTIVES: To ascertain the requirements for proper IC and ISC. To evaluate if a best technique exists. METHODS: Relevant articles on the subject are reviewed. CONCLUSION: There is a wide variety of materials and techniques applied for IC and ISC. This does not seem to change the practical outcome much if the basic principles are used: good education and training, clean and atraumatic technique, good patient compliance in the long-term. There is neither one best technique nor one best material for IC. Both depend greatly on the patient's individual anatomic, social and economic state.
