RESUMEN
Prolonged retention of urinary catheters (UC) after vaginal surgery is a common practice aimed at preventing postoperative urinary retention and enhancing the success rate of surgery. However, this approach also increases the chance of urinary tract infection (UTI), prolongs hospital stay (LOS), and delays recovery. Balancing these considerations, we investigated the effect of the timing of UC removal. We conducted a comprehensive literature search using four databases to identify all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving patients who underwent transvaginal surgery and had UC removal within 7 days postsurgery. This systematic review was conducted by two reviewers independently following the PRISMA guideline. This study investigated the timing of catheter removal in relation to the incidence of urinary retention, UTI, and LOS. A total of 8 RCT studies, involving 952 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Six studies revealed no significant difference in the urinary retention rate between early catheter removal group (24 h) and delayed removal group (>48 h, P = 0.21), but exhibited a significantly reduced UTI rate (P < 0.001) in 4 studies. In 2 studies, no significant difference in urinary retention rate between the earlier removal (3 h) and removal at 24 h (P = 0.09), and also UTI rate (P = 0.57). Overall, 5 studies revealed that early catheter removal significantly shortened the LOS by an average of 1-3 days (P ≤ 0.001). Early removal of UC can considerably reduce the rate of UTI and shorten the LOS. Moreover, it has potential benefits in terms of improving the quality of patient care and reducing medical costs.

BACKGROUND: Postpartum urinary retention is a common complication following caesarean section, with significant implications for patient comfort and recovery. Combined spinal and epidural anaesthesia is frequently employed for caesarean section, but postpartum urinary retention remains a clinical concern despite its benefits. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of hydromorphone hydrochloride combined with bupivacaine for combined spinal and epidural anaesthesia in reducing postpartum urinary retention. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who received combined spinal and epidural anaesthesia for caesarean section. The control group received bupivacaine, whereas the hydromorphone hydrochloride combined with bupivacaine spinal-epidural anaesthesia (HB) group received hydromorphone hydrochloride combined with bupivacaine. Data on demographics, anaesthesia, operative characteristics, postoperative urinary retention and adverse events were collected and analysed. RESULTS: The study enrolled 105 patients, with a control group (n = 51) receiving bupivacaine spinal-epidural anaesthesia and an observation group (n = 54) receiving hydromorphone hydrochloride combined with bupivacaine spinal-epidural anaesthesia. The incidence of postoperative urinary retention was significantly lower in the HB group than in the control group (3.70% vs. 17.65%, p = 0.044). Furthermore, the HB group exhibited a shorter time to first voiding after anaesthesia (5.72 ± 1.26 h vs. 6.28 ± 1.35 h, p = 0.029), lower peak postvoid residual volume (168.57 ± 25.09 mL vs. 180.43 ± 30.21 mL, p = 0.032), decreased need for postoperative catheterisation (5.56% vs. 21.57%, p = 0.034) and shorter duration of urinary catheterisation (10.92 ± 2.61 h vs. 12.04 ± 2.87 h, p = 0.039) than the control group. Correlation analysis supported a negative correlation between hydromorphone supplementation and parameters related to postoperative urinary retention. Multivariate regression analysis demonstrated a significant association between the duration of urinary catheterisation and the use of hydromorphone with the occurrence of postoperative urinary retention, providing further insights into the multifactorial nature of this postoperative complication. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of hydromorphone hydrochloride to bupivacaine for combined spinal and epidural anaesthesia was associated with a reduced incidence of postpartum urinary retention and improved postoperative voiding parameters, without significantly increasing the risk of adverse events.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Catheterization is a common treatment for postpartum urinary retention (PUR); however, its application before diagnosis of PUR remains unclear. The aim was to give an overview of the existing literature on the effectiveness and safety of intrapartum or postpartum catheterization in the prevention of PUR. METHODS: This scoping review followed a methodological framework. PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Web of Science, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang, the China Science and Technology Journal Database, and the China Biomedical Literature Database were searched from the inception of each database to 21 May 2023. RESULTS: The search revealed 16 studies examining three different catheterization methodologies, including 12 intrapartum studies. Ten studies concluded that intrapartum or postpartum catheterization prevented PUR, two of which were only for overt or covert PUR. In 4 out of 13 experimental studies, no significant difference was found: one for intrapartum catheterization versus routine nursing, the other for intrapartum or postpartum intermittent versus indwelling catheterization. However, one found that postpartum disposable catheterization after ineffective targeted care reduced the incidence of PUR compared with indwelling catheterization. One out of the 3 case-control studies concluded that prenatal catheterization ≥2 times was a risk factor for PUR. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the findings in this scoping review, catheterization prior to the diagnosis of PUR appears to play a role in preventing PUR and is safe. Preliminary evidence is accumulating on the effectiveness of three types of catheterization methods in preventing PUR, but more comprehensive studies are needed to establish these findings.

Urinary retention is a healthcare complication putting patients at risk of unnecessary suffering and harm. Orthopaedic patients are known to face an increased such risk, calling for evidence-based preoperative assessment and corresponding measures to prevent bladder problems. The aim of this study was to evaluate healthcare professionals' adherence to risk assessment guidelines for urinary retention in hip surgery patients. This was an observational study from January 2021 to April 2021 with a descriptive and comparative design, triangulating three data sources: (I) Medical records for 1382 hip surgery patients across 17 hospitals in Sweden were reviewed for preoperative risk assessments for urinary retention and voiding-related variables at discharge; (II) The patients completed a survey regarding postoperative lower urinary tract symptoms, and; (III) data were extracted from a national quality registry regarding type of surgery, preoperative physical status, and perioperative urinary complications. Group differences were analysed with Chi-square/Fisher's exact test, t-test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, or Mann-Whitney U-test. Logistic regression was used to analyse variables associated with completed risk assessments for urinary retention. Of all study participants, 23.4% (n = 323) had a preoperative documented risk assessment of urinary retention. Whether a risk assessment was performed was significantly associated with acute surgery [odds ratio (OR) 3.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.48-5.12] and undergoing surgery at an academic hospital (OR 4.59, 95% CI 2.68-7.85). Acute patients were more often affected by urinary retention and had bladder issues and/or an indwelling catheter at discharge. More than every tenth patient (11. 9%, n = 53) completing the survey experienced intensified bladder problems after their hip surgery. The study shows a lack of adherence to risk assessment for urinary retention according to evidence-based guidelines, which negatively affects quality of care and patient safety.

The purpose of this study is to better characterize patient- and surgery-specific parameters associated with postoperative urinary retention (POUR) and assess the impact of prophylactic Tamsulosin following posterior spinal fusion (PSF) for the management of scoliosis in pediatric and adolescent patients. All patients who underwent PSF for surgical correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and neuromuscular scoliosis (NMS) between 2015 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were stratified based on whether they received prophylactic Tamsulosin. Overall, POUR was reported in 3.7% (n = 10) of all patients in the study, although Tamsulosin was associated with a lower rate of POUR, and this did not reach statistical significance. Longer fusion constructs were identified as a risk factor for POUR and could help surgeons counsel families prior to surgery. This is the first study to assess the rate of POUR on AIS and NMS patients following PSF without epidural analgesia. (Journal of Surgical Orthopaedic Advances 33(1):010-013, 2024).

BACKGROUND: Transperineal Prostate Biopsy (TPB) is a commonly used technique for the diagnosis of prostate cancer due to growing concerns related to infectious complications associated with transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy (TRUSB). TPB is associated with an infective complication rate of near zero, however, acute urinary retention (AUR) remains the leading complication causing morbidity. Previously in TRUSB, there was weak evidence that alpha-blockers reduce AUR rates, and their usage has been extrapolated to clinical practice with TPB. This review aims to explore if there is an evidence base for using alpha-blockers to prevent AUR following TPB. METHODS: A systematic approach was used to search Ovid Medline and Embase using keywords related to "Transperineal" and "Retention". Articles were then screened by applying inclusion and exclusion criteria to find studies that compared alpha-blocker recipients to no alpha-blocker use in the perioperative period and the subsequent effect on AUR in TPB. RESULTS: 361 records were identified in the initial search to produce 5 studies included in the final review. No randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were identified. One observational study showed a reduction in AUR rate from 12.5% to 5.3% with a single dose of tamsulosin. A previous systematic review of complications associated with prostate biopsy concluded there may be a potential benefit to alpha-blockers given in the TPB perioperative period. Three observational studies demonstrated a harmful effect related to alpha-blocker use; however, this was well explained by their clear limitations. CONCLUSION: Based on this review and the extrapolation from TRUSB data, perioperative alpha-blockers may offer some weak benefits in preventing AUR following TPB. However, there is significant scope and need for an RCT to further develop the evidence base further given the significant gap in the literature and lack of a standard alpha blocker protocol in TPB.

PURPOSE: Post-operative urinary retention (POUR) is a known complication of hernia surgery. Minimally invasive inguinal hernia repair (IHR) is typically done under general anesthesia with neuromuscular blockade (NMB), which is commonly reversed with an anticholinesterase inhibitor paired with an anticholinergic agent. Sugammadex is a unique NMB reversal agent that does not have to be paired with an anticholinergic. We sought to explore the role of sugammadex in reducing the rate of POUR following these procedures. METHODS: Data were collected retrospectively at a single institution between February 2016 and October 2019. We identified and studied patients who underwent minimally invasive IHR and received either sugammadex or neostigmine/glycopyrrolate for NMB reversal. The primary endpoint was POUR requiring bladder catheterization. Secondary endpoints included post-operative and 30-day readmissions. RESULTS: 274 patients were included in this study (143 received neostigmine and glycopyrrolate, 131 sugammadex). The sugammadex patients were on average 5 years older than the neostigmine/ glycopyrrolate patients (63.2 vs 58.2, p = 0.003), and received less median intravenous fluids (IVF) (900 ml vs 1000 ml; p = 0.015). There was a significant difference in the rate of POUR between the sugammadex and neostigmine/glycopyrrolate patients (0.0% vs 8.4%, p ≤ 0.001). The difference remained significant after controlling for age and IVF. The odds of POUR for those who received neostigmine/glycopyrrolate were 25 × higher than the odds of those who received sugammadex. CONCLUSION: The results of this study reflect the protective role of sugammadex against POUR in minimally invasive IHR cases.

Currently, colorectal cancer has the third highest incidence worldwide. As its incidence is increasing, focus on quality of life after laparoscopic radical resection for colorectal cancer has also increased. This study aimed to compare the effects of retention or resection of the Denonvilliers'fascia on urinary and sexual functions in men who underwent laparoscopic radical resection for rectal cancer. Relevant national and international literature databases, including China Knowledge Network, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Excerpta Medica Database, were searched according to the established retrieval scheme. Review Manager 5.3 was used to analyze data, and the correct effect model was selected based on heterogeneity. In total, 22 studies involving 2255 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The studies were categorized into the experimental and control groups. The incidence of urinary dysfunction was lower in the experimental group than in the control group at 1 and 6 months postoperatively. In terms of sexual function, the experimental group had lower rates of erectile and ejaculatory dysfunctions than the control group at 1, 3, and 6 months and 1 year postoperatively. However, the experimental group had a longer operation time than the control group. No significant differences in incidence of postoperative complications, intra-operative blood loss, and number of lymph nodes dissections were observed between the two groups. Overall, laparoscopic radical resection for rectal cancer with preservation of the Denonvilliers' fascia has been proven effective in improving postoperative urinary and sexual functions in men without affecting the number of lymph nodes dissected and enhancing postoperative quality of life.

BACKGROUND: The global cesarean delivery rate is high and continues to increase. A bladder catheter is usually placed for the cesarean delivery because a distended bladder is assumed to be at higher risk of injury during surgery and to compromise surgical field exposure. Preliminary data suggest that self bladder emptying (no catheter) at cesarean delivery may have advantages and be safe. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the effects of self bladder emptying and indwelling Foley bladder catheterization for planned cesarean delivery on the rate of postpartum urinary retention and maternal satisfaction. STUDY DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial was conducted in a tertiary university hospital from January 10, 2022 to March 22, 2023. A total of 400 participants scheduled for planned cesarean delivery were randomized: 200 each to self bladder emptying or indwelling Foley catheter. The primary outcomes were postpartum urinary retention (overt and covert) and maternal satisfaction with allocated bladder care. Analyses were performed using t test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, or Fisher exact test, as appropriate. Logistic regression was used to adjust for differences in characteristics. RESULTS: Postpartum urinary retention rates were 1 per 200 (0.6%) and 0 per 200 (P>.99) (a solitary case of covert retention) and maternal satisfaction scores (0-10 visual numerical rating scale), expressed as median (interquartile range) were 9 (8-9.75) and 8 (8-9) (P=.003) in the self bladder emptying and indwelling Foley catheter arms, respectively. Regarding secondary outcomes, time to flatus passage, satisfactory ambulation, urination, satisfactory urination, satisfactory breastfeeding, and postcesarean hospital discharge was quickened in the self bladder emptying group. Pain scores at first urination were decreased and no lower urinary tract symptom was more likely to be reported with self bladder emptying. Surgical field view, operative blood loss, duration of surgery, culture-derived urinary tract infection, postvoid residual volume, and pain score at movement were not different. There was no bladder injury. CONCLUSION: Self bladder emptying increased maternal satisfaction without adversely affecting postpartum urinary retention. Recovery was enhanced and urinary symptoms were improved. The surgeon was not impeded at operation. No safety concern was found.

There is an increase in outpatient procedures and this trend will continue in the future. For hemorrhoidectomy, it is the standard of treatment in many health care systems. Perioperative management including adequate pain control is of paramount importance to ensure successful ambulatory surgery. This study investigates the role and effect of morphine compared to short-acting opiates applied before, during, or after proctological interventions and with focus on hemorrhoidectomy. A retrospective analysis of a prospective database was conducted comparing two populations. The control cohort received morphine (Yes-Mô) intra- and postoperatively, while the intervention group did not receive morphine (No-Mô) between January 2018 and January 2020. Both cohorts were balanced by propensity score matching. The outcomes were postoperative pain measured by numeric ratings scale (NRS) one hour postoperatively, pain 24 h postoperatively, success rate of outpatient management, and complication rate including postoperative nausea and vomiting as well as urinary retention. The intervention population comprised 54 patients and the control group contained 79 patients. One hour after surgery, patients in No-Mô reported lower NRS (1.44 ± 1.41) compared to Yes-Mô (2.48 ± 2.30) (p = 0.029). However, there was no difference in NRS 24 h postoperatively (No-Mô: 1.61 ± 1.41 vs Yes-Mô: 1.63 ± 1.72; p = 0.738). 100% of No-Mô was managed as outpatients while only 50% of Yes-Mô was dismissed on the day of the operation (p = < 0.001). There was no difference in postoperative complications (including postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and urinary retention) between the two groups (PONV No-Mô 7.4% vs Yes-Mô 5.6%, p = 1.0 and urinary retention No-Mô 3.7% vs Yes-Mô 7.4%, p = 0.679). No-Mô received an oral morphine equivalent of 227.25 ± 140.35 mg intraoperatively and 11.02 ± 18.02 mg postoperatively. Yes-Mô received 263.17 ± 153.60 mg intraoperatively and 15.97 ± 14.17 mg postoperatively. The difference in received morphine equivalent between the groups was not significant after matching for the intraoperative (p = 0.212) and postoperative (p = 0.119) received equivalent. Omission of perioperative morphine is a viable but yet not understood method for reducing postoperative pain. Omission of morphine leads to a lower use of total morphine equivalent to attain satisfactory analgesia. The reduction of the overall opiate load and using opiates with a very short half-life potentially leads to a reduction of side effects like sedation. This in turn promotes discharge of the patient on the day of surgery. Omission of morphine is safe and does not increase postoperative complications.

The perioperative management of patients involves multiple aspects. Acute urinary retention (AUR) is one of the possible postoperative complications. Alpha-adrenoblockers are commonly used for treatment and prevention of AUR. Tamsulosin is the most often prescribed drug; there are a lot of studies devoted to its use in different patient subgroups. The aim of our study was to evaluate the efficiency of perioperative use of tamsulosin for the prevention of postoperative AUR. A literature review from January 2013 to June 2023 in Scopus and PubMed databases was carried out. According to the results, tamsulosin results in a significant reduction in the risk of postoperative AUR. A personalized approach allows to overcome difficulties in the perioperative management of patients and significantly improve their quality of life/satisfaction from treatment.

BACKGROUND: To compare the effect of different noninvasive external therapies of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on the prevention of postpartum urinary retention (PUR) using a network meta-analysis (NMA). METHODS: A search of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFangDate, VIP, China Biomedical Literature Database, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science databases were reviewed for related randomized controlled trials dated between database inception and December 31, 2022, on the prevention of PUR by noninvasive TCM. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted the data, and assessed the risk of bias in the included studies; then, a NMA was performed using Revman5.3 software, State13.1 software, and frequency methodology. RESULTS: In total, 16 studies involving 3637 cases of parturients and 9 types of noninvasive TCM external treatments were incorporated into the NMA. The NMA results show that based on routine nursing, in terms of reducing the incidence of urinary retention, acupoint compressing combined with auricular acupressure is ranked first, followed by acupoint hot compress, acupoint massage combined with auricular acupressure, Yin-Yang therapy, acupoint massage, auricular acupressure, acupoint compressing, and routine nursing. In terms of urination time, acupoint compressing combined with auricular acupressure ranked first, followed by acupoint massage combined with auricular acupressure, acupoint electrical stimulation, acupoint compressing, TCM heating therapy, acupoint massage, auricular acupressure, and routine nursing. In terms of reducing residual urine volume after the first urination, acupoint compressing combined with auricular acupressure was ranked first, followed by auricular acupressure, acupoint compressing, acupoint massage, TCM heating therapy, and routine nursing. CONCLUSION: Current evidence shows that acupoint compressing combined with auricular acupressure may be the best noninvasive TCM treatment for preventing PUR based on routine nursing; however, further high-quality clinical randomized controlled trials are needed for validation and support.

PURPOSE: Patients may remain catheterized after artificial urinary sphincter surgery to prevent urinary retention, despite a lack of evidence to support this practice. Our study aims to evaluate the feasibility of outpatient, catheter-free continence surgery using a multi-institutional database. We hypothesize that between catheterized controls and patients without a catheter, there would be no difference in the rate of urinary retention or postoperative complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a retrospective review of patients undergoing first-time artificial urinary sphincter placement from 2009-2021. Patients were stratified by postoperative catheter status into either no-catheter (leaving the procedure without a catheter) or catheter (postoperative indwelling catheter for â¼24 hours). The primary outcome, urinary retention, was defined as catheterization due to subjective voiding difficulty or documented postvoid residual over 250 mL. RESULTS: Our study identified 302 catheter and 123 no-catheter patients. Twenty (6.6%) catheter and 9 (7.3%) no-catheter patients developed urinary retention (P = .8). On multivariable analysis, controlling for age, cuff size, radiation history and surgeon, there was no statistically significant association between omitting a catheter and urinary retention (OR: 0.45, 95% CI: 0.13-1.58; P = .2). Furthermore, at 30 months follow-up, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that device survival was 70% (95% CI: 62%-76%) vs 69% (95% CI: 48%-82%) for the catheter and no-catheter group, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: In our multi-institutional cohort, overall retention rates were low (7%) in groups with a catheter and without. Obviating postoperative catheterization facilitates outpatient incontinence surgery without altering reoperation over medium-term follow-up.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is associated with significant morbidity. Our institution's POUR rate was elevated among patients undergoing elective lumbar spinal surgery. We sought to demonstrate that our quality improvement (QI) intervention would significantly lower our POUR rate and length of stay (LOS). METHODS: A resident-led QI intervention was implemented from October 2017 to 2018 on 422 patients in an academically affiliated community teaching hospital. This consisted of standardized intraoperative indwelling catheter utilization, postoperative catheterization protocol, prophylactic tamsulosin, and early ambulation after surgery. Baseline data on 277 patients were collected retrospectively from October 2015 to September 2016. Primary outcomes were POUR and LOS. The focus, analyze, develop, execute, and evaluate (FADE) model was used. Multivariable analyses were used. P value <.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: We analyzed 699 patients (277 pre-intervention vs 422 post-intervention). The POUR rate (6.9% vs 2.6%, Δ confidence interval [CI] 1.15-8.08, P = .007) and mean LOS (2.94 ± 1.87 days vs 2.56 ± 2.2 days, Δ CI 0.066-0.68, P = .017) were significantly improved following our intervention. Logistic regression demonstrated that the intervention was independently associated with significantly decreased odds for developing POUR (odds ratio [OR] = 0.38, CI 0.17-0.83, P = .015). Diabetes (OR = 2.25, CI 1.03-4.92, P = .04) and longer surgery duration (OR = 1.006, CI 1.002-1.01, P = .002) were independently associated with increased odds of developing POUR. CONCLUSIONS: After implementing our POUR QI project for patients undergoing elective lumbar spine surgery, the institutional POUR rate significantly decreased by 4.3% (62% reduction) and LOS, by 0.37 days. We demonstrated that a standardized POUR care bundle was independently associated with a significant decrease in the odds of developing POUR.

BACKGROUND: The rate of post-operative urinary retention (POUR) in inguinal hernia repairs (IHR) is estimated to be approximately 5.9% to 38% worldwide. Currently, there are minimal studies on the prophylaxis of POUR after IHR. Pre-operative administration of alpha-blockers such as (but not limited to) Tamsulosin, Prazosin and Alfuzosin has shown promising results in the prevention of POUR in patients undergoing IHR. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of prophylactic alpha-blockade in the prevention of POUR after IHR. METHODS: This study reports the findings of a systematic review and meta-analysis. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) using prophylactic alpha-blockade for the prevention of POUR after open and/or laparoscopic IHR in patients aged more than 18 years in all sex groups were included. Multiple databases were searched from inception to October 2021 using the PRISMA flow diagram. Data were extracted and analysed to include eligibility criteria, comparator, intervention, study and participant characteristics. Studies excluded were non-RCT studies and patients with known urinary tract disorders such as benign prostate hypertrophy, urinary incontinence and cancer of the bladder or prostate. Subgroup analyses were also conducted. All effect measures of each data were odds ratio with 95% confidence interval. All studies were pooled using the dichotomous random effects Mantel-Haenszel statistical mode and I2 was used to assess heterogeneity. Publication bias was detected using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomised trials (RoB-2) involving two independent reviewers. RESULTS: A total of eight RCTs were identified which provided adequate numeric data for incorporation into the meta-analysis. Overall, administration of pre-operative alpha-blocker prior to IHR did not prevent POUR (95% CI 1.20 (0.96-1.49), I2: 34%). Subgroup analysis comparing pre-operative use of prophylactic alpha-blocker in open versus laparoscopic IHR has shown statistically significant reduction of POUR prevention in the laparoscopic group (95% CI 0.66 (0.47-0.92)), I2: 43%). The older age group benefited from pre-operative alpha-blocker use with reduced incidence of POUR post-IHR (95% CI 0.14 (0.08, 0.23), I2: 0%)). Gender did not affect the difference of incidence of POUR post-IHR despite pre-operative alpha-blockers (95% CI 0.62 (0.27, 1.44)), I2: 53%)). CONCLUSION: Overall, this meta-analysis has shown that administration of prophylactic alpha-blockers did not prevent POUR. However, there was statistically significant reduction of POUR in patients undergoing laparoscopic IHR as compared to open, as well as in older patients (age more than 60 years) after administration of pre-operative alpha-blocker. Hence, the use of pre-operative alpha-blocker especially in older patients should be considered and more RCTs should be undertaken.

OBJECTIVE: The meta-analysis aimed to integrate the evidence of randomized control trials to estimate the efficacy of prophylactic tamsulosin on postoperative urinary retention (POUR). METHODS: The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were searched through 1 March 2022 using predetermined keywords. Randomized control trials reporting the preventive efficacy of prophylactic tamsulosin against POUR were identified according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) guideline. Pooled risk ratios (RRs) were calculated using a random-effects model or a fixed-effects model based on the results of heterogeneity assessment. A meta-regression analysis was performed to explore the potential sources of heterogeneity. RESULTS: There were 14 studies with 1102 patients in the Tamsulosin group and 1119 patients in the Control group. The risk of POUR was significantly lower in the Tamsulosin group (156/1102 [14.2%] vs. 238/1119 [21.3%]; RR=0.65; 95% CI: 0.50-0.86; P =0.002; Heterogeneity: I2 =51%; P =0.01). Tamsulosin administration was associated with a higher risk of adverse events (65/614 [10.6%] vs. 39/626 [6.2%]; RR=1.72; 95% CI: 1.19-2.48; P =0.004; Heterogeneity: I2 =0%; P =0.70). The meta-regression identified the mean age of patients as the only potential source of heterogeneity. Subgroup analysis showed that the younger patients (age <50 years) might benefit more from tamsulosin intake (RR=0.36; 95% CI: 0.19-0.70; P =0.003; Heterogeneity: I2 =49%; P =0.14). CONCLUSIONS: The current meta-analysis suggested that prophylactic tamsulosin contributed to the prevention of POUR, and younger patients (<50 years) might benefit more from this preventive regimen. Tamsulosin was also associated with a higher risk of adverse events.

BACKGROUND: Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication of spinal anesthesia that occurs in 10-80% of patients after total hip replacement (THR). Bladder catheterization carries risks for urinary tract infections, mechanical urethral trauma, urethral inflammation and subsequent strictures, pain, discomfort, an increased length of hospital stay, and a loss of patient dignity. OBJECTIVES: We investigated whether simple postoperative nurse-driven intervention protocols, including the sound of running tap water, followed by caffeinated hot beverages (tea or coffee) and pouring warm saline on the perineal area, could reduce POUR and the need for bladder catheterization. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This pilot study included 60 patients undergoing elective fast-track THR with spinal anesthesia and early patient ambulation. Patients with postoperative voiding difficulties received nursing interventions, including hearing running tap water, ingesting caffeinated beverages (tea and coffee), and warm saline poured over the perineal area. If voiding difficulties continued, bladder distention was examined by ultrasound. Catheterization was performed if the volume exceeded 500 mL or if distension caused discomfort or pain. RESULTS: Seven patients (11%) were excluded from the study due to prophylactic preoperative catheterization. Among the 53 included patients, 27 (51%) experienced spontaneous voiding difficulties and received nursing interventions, which induced voiding in 24 patients (45%, p = 0.0027), while 3 (6%) required catheterization. CONCLUSION: Simple nursing interventions reduced the need for bladder catheterization after fast-track THR.
