Abstract
Background Bladder dysfunction is a common complication following radical hysterectomy, affecting patients' QOL. Exploring interventions, particularly IC continuity care, is crucial for identifying strategies to enhance postoperative outcomes. This study aimed to assess the impact of continuous intermittent catheterization (IC) care on bladder function recovery and quality of life (QOL) in patients undergoing radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. Methods The primary outcome measured was the time to bladder function recovery, with secondary outcomes comprising EORTC QLQ-C30 assessments at 3 and 6 months post-surgery, as well as EORTC QLQ-CX24 evaluations. Meanwhile, urinary complications, readmissions, and outpatient follow-up were also compared. Results Among the 128 participants, with 64 in each group, indwelling catheterization durations were similar. However, the IC continuity care group exhibited significantly shorter IC duration and bladder recovery time. This group demonstrated superior QOL, lower occurrence rates post-IC, reduced urethral injuries, and higher readmission and outpatient follow-up rates. Conclusion This study underscores continuous IC care emerges as a beneficial intervention, facilitating accelerated bladder function recovery and improved QOL in patients following radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer.

[PMID: 38831267 PMCID: PMC11145841 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-024-05101-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) among older patients with hip fractures is common and may result in delayed ambulation, prolonged hospital stays, and urinary tract infections. Although preoperative urinary catheter indwelling and early postoperative removal can prevent perioperative urinary retention, this condition may occur in some patients after catheter removal, which requires urinary catheter re-indwelling or intermittent catheterization. Therefore, this study aims to identify risk factors and develop a screening tool for postoperative urinary retention in patients who have undergone operative treatment for fragility hip fractures subsequent to urinary catheter removal. METHODS A prospective cohort study of 145 fragility hip fracture in older patients who were operatively treated between September 2020 and May 2022 was conducted. All patients were evaluated for urine retention after urinary catheter removal using a bladder scan. In addition, factors related to urinary retention were collected and utilized for screening tool development. RESULTS Of the included patients, 22 (15.2%) were diagnosed with POUR. A multivariable logistic regression model using a stepwise backward elimination algorithm identified the current use of drugs with anticholinergic effect (OR = 11.9, p = 0.012), international prostate symptom score (IPSS) ≥ 8 (OR = 9.3, p < 0.001), and inability to independently get out of bed within 24 h postoperatively (OR = 6.5, p = 0.051) as risk factors of POUR. The screening tool that has been developed revealed an excellent performance (AuROC = 0.85, 95%CI 0.75 to 0.91) with good calibration and minimal optimism. CONCLUSIONS Current use of drugs with anticholinergic effects, IPSS ≥ 8, and inability to independently get out of bed within 24 h postoperatively are significant variables of POUR. For additional external validation, a proposed scoring system for POUR screening was developed. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study protocol was retrospectively registered in The Thai Clinical Trials Registry (TCTR20220502001: 2 May 2022).

Prophylactic tamsulosin can reduce the risk of urinary retention after surgery in male patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Surg 2022; 9:930707. [DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.930707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
ObjectiveThe meta-analysis aimed to estimate the efficacy of prophylactic tamsulosin on postoperative urinary retention (POUR) in male patients.MethodsPapers were searched in the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases with predetermined keywords up to March 1, 2022. The studies reporting the preventive efficacy of prophylactic tamsulosin on POUR among men were identified. Pooled risk ratios (RRs) were calculated based on the random-effects model. Meta-regression was performed to explore potential sources of heterogeneity.ResultsThere were 11 studies with 1,046 patients in the tamsulosin group and 1,113 patients in the control group. The risk of POUR was significantly lower in the tamsulosin group (123/1,046 [11.8%] vs. 238/1,119 [19.0%]; RR = 0.61; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.43 to 0.87; P = 0.006; heterogeneity: I2 = 57%; P = 0.009). Administration of tamsulosin was related to higher risk of adverse events (57/688 [8.3%] vs. 33/624 [5.3%]; RR = 1.68; 95% CI: 1.13 to 2.48; P = 0.010; heterogeneity: I2 = 33%; P = 0.20). The level of evidence and mean age of the included patients were identified as the potential sources of heterogeneity.ConclusionThe present meta-analysis indicated that prophylactic tamsulosin helps in preventing POUR and younger patients might benefit more from this preventive regimen. Administrating tamsulosin was also associated with a possibly higher risk of adverse events.

A co-created nurse-driven catheterisation protocol can reduce bladder distension in acute hip fracture patients - results from a longitudinal observational study. BMC Nurs 2022; 21:276. [PMID: 36224550 PMCID: PMC9559039 DOI: 10.1186/s12912-022-01057-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2022] [Accepted: 09/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Urinary retention is common in elderly patients undergoing acute hip fracture surgery. Avoiding overfilling the urinary bladder is important to avoid detrusor muscle damage and associated motility problems. The aim of this study was to analyse associations between the co-creation of a nurse-driven urinary catheterisation protocol and the incidence of bladder distension in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. Methods This is a single-centre implementation intervention with a retrospective longitudinal observation design, using five measures points, spanning from June 2015 to March 2020. The intervention was theory driven and the participants, together with the facilitators and researcher, co-created a nurse-driven urinary catheterisation protocol. Data were retrieved from the hip fracture register. Uni- and multivariable logistic regressions were used for analyses of changes in bladder distension and urinary volume of ≥500 ml over the years. Results A total of 3078 patients were included over a five-year period. The implementation intervention was associated with a reduction in the proportion of patients with bladder distension of 31.5% (95% confidence interval 26.0–37.0), from year 1 to year 5. The multivariable analysis indicated a 39% yearly reduction in bladder distension, OR 0.61 (95% confidence interval 0.57–0.64, p < 0001). There was a reduction in the proportion of patients with a bladder volume of ≥500 ml of 42.8% (95% confidence interval 36.2–49.4), from year 1 to year 5. The multivariable analysis found a 41% yearly reduction in patients with a bladder volume of ≥500 ml, OR 0.59 (95% confidence interval 0.55–0.64, p < 0.0001). The intervention was associated with improved documentation of both catheter indications and removal plans. Conclusion The use of predefined catheter indications and a tighter bladder scanning schedule were associated with a reduction in the incidence of both bladder distension and urine volume ≥ 500 ml in hip fracture patients. Registered nurses can play an active role in the facilitation of timely and appropriate catheter treatment in patients with hip fractures. Trial registration Clinical Trial Registry ISRCTN 17022695 registered retrospectively on 23 December 2021, in the end of the study, after data collection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Health outcomes of older subjects with hip fracture (HF) may be negatively influenced by multiple comorbidities and frailty. An integrated multidisciplinary approach (i.e. the orthogeriatric model) is, therefore, highly recommended, but its implementation in clinical practice suffers from the lack of shared management protocols and poor awareness of the problem. The present consensus document has been implemented to address these issues. AIM To develop evidence-based recommendations for the orthogeriatric co-management of older subjects with HF. METHODS A 20-member Expert Task Force of geriatricians, orthopaedics, anaesthesiologists, physiatrists, physiotherapists and general practitioners was established to develop evidence-based recommendations for the pre-, peri-, intra- and postoperative care of older in-patients (≥ 65 years) with HF. A modified Delphi approach was used to achieve consensus, and the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force system was used to rate the strength of recommendations and the quality of evidence. RESULTS A total of 120 recommendations were proposed, covering 32 clinical topics and concerning preoperative evaluation (11 topics), perioperative (8 topics) and intraoperative (3 topics) management, and postoperative care (10 topics). CONCLUSION These recommendations should ease and promote the multidisciplinary management of older subjects with HF by integrating the expertise of different specialists. By providing a convenient list of topics of interest, they might assist in identifying unmet needs and research priorities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Compare the morbidity and mortality, the length of hospital stay and the economic cost of the fragility fracture of the hip, in two nonconsecutive years thanks to the integrated orthogeriatric care. MATERIAL AND METHOD Retrospective observational cohort study with 633 patients with hip fragility fracture with a mean age of 85.5 years, treated in the same Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery service in two different years (2012 and 2017). Mean stay, surgical delay, perioperative mortality, one month and one year, and perioperative complications such as acute urine retention, pressure ulcers, and need for transfusion were measured. RESULTS Mortality during admission decreased from 10% in 2012 to 3.6% in 2017 (P=.004 *), while mortality at thirty days (10.5% vs 7%) (P=.123) and one year (28.9% versus 24.9%) (P=.277). Hospital stay times, surgical delay, and postoperative admission time also decreased. The estimated total annual economic savings thanks to integrated orthogeriatric care amounted to €1,017,084.94. CONCLUSIONS Integrated orthogeriatric care of the patient with fragility fracture of the hip, results in a more effective and efficient care model. Both the care and the clinical situation of patients are improved in the perioperative period, both hospital stay and mortality during admission are significantly reduced, and all this with significant associated economic savings.

Triple-disease etiology is common for LUTS in octogenarians: a neuro-urological approach. Int Urol Nephrol 2021; 53:1507-1513.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Older individuals often have multiple etiologies for their lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS); i.e., both urologic (U) and neurologic (N) etiologies. Few studies have investigated 'triple disease' (typically one U and two N components) in the LUTS of older adults. Herein, we had specialists from both urology and neurology address triple- and quadruple-etiology disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study with a 12-month recruiting period. We ascertained LUTS by standard questionnaires and bladder diaries. Urodynamics, sphincter EMG, prostate echography, and a neurologic examination were conducted for each patient as well as neuroimaging and neurophysiology examinations when appropriate. The diagnoses of the etiologies were based on published criteria. RESULTS We analyzed the cases of 141 older (age > 65 years) adults with LUTS referred from both urology (27%) and neurology departments (73%). The final etiologies were U (n = 69, 49%), N (n = 136, 96%), and a combination (U and N) (n = 77, 55%, overlap counted). The majority of U diagnoses were benign prostatic hyperplasia. The majority of N diagnoses were dementia with Lewy bodies, white matter disease (brain); lumbar spondylosis, and diabetes (peripheral disease). We noted triple-disease etiology in 25% (n = 35), increasing with each decade of age (18.2% of sexagenarians, 23.5% of septuagenarians, 39.1% of octogenarians). However, the differences were not significant. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that triple disease for LUTS is the most common in octogenarians, and clinicians thus need to untangle LUTS etiologies to provide appropriate care and management of older adults.
