Abstract
Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) is the gold standard for the management of urinary retention. Students with special healthcare needs who require CIC can be supported by school nurses who have knowledge and expertise in the management of CIC including an understanding of available products, reinforcement of proper technique, and resources available to promote student independence. This article will discuss the variety and unique features of CIC products and tips to overcoming barriers in bladder management.
