OBJECTIVE: Urologic complications are among the most common complications after kidney transplantation. These complications are urinary retention, hematuria, hemorrhage, urinary leakage, vesicoureteral reflux, pyelonephritis, and nephrolithiasis. Although neurogenic bladder is one of the indications for kidney transplantation, it is not considered in the literature to be an expected complication after transplantation. In this case, we discuss the nursing care of a patient who underwent kidney transplantation from a living donor and developed neurogenic bladder. CASE REPORT: A 60-year-old woman underwent kidney transplantation from a living donor, and neurogenic bladder developed in the patient 1 year after kidney transplantation. Clear intermittent catheterization treatment was administered for the kidney transplant recipient with neurogenic bladder. Clear intermittent catheterization treatment was stopped in the patient who had frequent urinary tract infections and, alternatively, sacral neuromodulation treatment was administered to the patient. CONCLUSIONS: The nursing care of a patient with neurogenic bladder after kidney transplantation aims to prevent excessive bladder distension, infection, stone formation, vesicoureteral reflux, renal failure, urinary tract damage, and incontinence, and to ensure regular and complete discharge of the bladder. The most common treatment modalities for these objectives are permanent or intermittent catheterization, sacral neuromodulation, and medical therapy. In the care of the patient with neurogenic bladder after kidney transplantation, nurses should provide appropriate care related to treatment options and bladder training, plan urination schedules of the patient, and monitor for possible complications.

PURPOSE: Intermittent catheterization (IC) often is essential for individuals with spina bifida/myelomeningocele (SBM) and neurogenic bladder. This study aimed to identify and analyze the factors that influence the use of IC. DESIGN AND METHODS: Descriptive study with convenience sampling. Data were collected using printed (Brazil) and online (Germany) questionnaires, and analyzed using multivariate logistical regression and analysis of variance. The study included 100 Brazilian and 100 German patients, aged 0-55 years, with SBM who utilized IC. FINDINGS: Intermittent catheterization was used by 188 of the 200 patients. Three variables were important for predicting who did or did not use IC: no discontinuation of IC, absence of technical difficulty, and daily frequency of IC. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Findings suggest that difficulties with IC use experienced by spina bifida patients and their family members that predicted full discontinuation tended to be personal variables, rather than demographic or medical characteristics.

A pesquisa buscou conhecer os cuidados realizados pelo familiar à criança portadora de bexiga neurogênica que necessita de cateterismo vesical intermitente limpo, no domicilio. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo, realizado em ambulatório de pediatria de um hospital universitário, localizado na cidade do Rio de Janeiro. A coleta dos dados deu-se com 12 familiares através de entrevistas semiestruturadas, no período de janeiro a julho de 2014. Para o tratamento dos dados foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo de Bardin, dando origem a três categorias analíticas: Organizando o ambiente e a criança para o cateterismo; Preparo das mãos para a realização do cateterismo; A realização da técnica pelo familiar. Conclui-se que o cateterismo é realizado conforme a técnica descrita em literatura, mas existem determinados familiares que realizam inadequadamente certos passos da técnica. Sugere-se a realização de protocolos de orientação aos familiares para uniformização de condutas e grupos de apoio aos mesmos.
This qualitative study to examine care provided by family members to children with neurogenic bladder needing clean intermittent catheterization at home was conducted at a pediatric outpatient department of a university hospital in Rio de Janeiro City. Data was collected by semi-structured interviews of 12 family members, between January and July 2014. Data were examined using Bardin content analysis, resulting in three categories: organizing the environment and the child for the catheterization; preparing hands to perform the catheterization; and the technique performed by the family member. It was concluded that catheterization is performed according to the technique described in the literature, but certain family members perform some steps of the technique inappropriately. We suggest producing guidance protocols for family members to standardize conduct, and holding support groups for them.

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective longitudinal study of short- and long-term urinary complications in chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) patients managed at the Midlands Centre for Spinal Injuries (MCSI). SETTING: MCSI, Oswestry, UK. METHOD: A total of 185 SCI patients were admitted to the MCSI between 1984 and 1989. Only 119 patients who met the following criteria were included: traumatic SCI, Frankel grade A-D, admission within 6 weeks post injury, regular annual follow-up or alternate year at MCSI, follow-up longer than 8 years. Follow-up ranged between 8 and 21 years with a mean of 17.7 (s.d.=1.98). The method of bladder drainage varied from the time of injury. Drainage was by indwelling urethral catheterisation (IndUC) before admission to the MCSI. Within 24 h of admission, assisted clean intermittent catheterisation (ACIC) by the nursing staff was commenced. This was followed by clean intermittent self catheterisation (CISC) once the patient was mobilised in the wheel chair and trained in the procedure. When detrusor reflex activity develops, patients with good hand function were given a choice between CISC and reflex voiding (RV). Patients with poor hand function are given the choice between RV, suprapubic catheters or ACIC during hospitalisation and after discharge. Only a minority of these patients choose ACIC following discharge. RV was supplemented occasionally by sphincterotomy. There were 99 males and 20 females (5:1). The age at the time of injury was 16-63 years with a mean of 29 (s.d.=12). Instead of a single method, a pattern of bladder management was analysed in the context of three continuous phases: Phase1 preadmission to MCSI. Phase2 during first hospitalisation at MCSI. Phase3 post discharge. In each phase, the patients were divided into those with and without complications. The complications were analysed in relation to the management and other relevant factors. RESULTS: The total complication rate at all stages was 62%. Complications of the upper urinary tract accounted for 22.6%. These results compared favourably with published material. CONCLUSION: The sequential system of supervised bladder management commencing with brief IndUC followed by IntC and/or RV remains effective in keeping the complication rate relatively low in SCI patients, who undergo regular surveillance and timely intervention. SPONSORSHIP: The project was supported by SPIRIT, a charitable not for profit trust that supports teaching, training, clinical research and dissemination of knowledge about all aspects of spinal paralysis in the UK.

Intermittent catheterization is the insertion and removal of a catheter several times a day to empty the bladder. This type of catheterization Is used to drain urine from a bladder that is not emptying adequately or from a surgically created channel that connects the bladder with the abdominal surface (such as Mitrofanoff continent urinary diversion). Intermittent catheterization is widely advocated as an effective bladder management strategy for patients with incomplete bladder emptying due to idiopathic or neurogenic bladder dysfunction. Urologic nurses are at the forefront of educating and teaching patients how to self-catheterize. Catheterizations performed in institutions, such as acute and rehabilitation hospitals and nursing homes, are done aseptically. Historically, however, intermittent catheterization has been performed by the patient in the home environment using a clean technique involving the re-use of catheters. New guidelines released in the past three years have recommended changes to the practice of re-using catheters. Currently, nurses use their clinical judgment to determine which technique and type of catheter to use, in conjunction with patient preference. Differential costs and insurance coverage of catheters/echniques may also influence decision making. The authors provide an overview of the indications, use, and complications associated with intermittent catheterization, present current guidelines on self-catheterization and treatment of catheter-associated complications, detail types of catheters, and review clinical practice of intermittent catheterization.

STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey. OBJECTIVES: To describe the care received, care needs and preventability of secondary conditions according to persons with long-term spinal cord injury (SCI) living at home. SETTING: The Netherlands. METHODS: A questionnaire was sent to all members of the Dutch SCI Patient Organisation. From a list of 26 SCI secondary conditions, participants chose the five conditions they perceived as most important. For each of these conditions, they described the type of care they received, their need for (extra) care and its preventability. RESULTS: Response rate was 45% (n=453) and mean time after injury was 13.3 years. In case of secondary conditions, participants were more likely to visit their general practitioner (58%) than another medical specialist (29%) or rehabilitation specialist (25%). For all most-important secondary conditions, care was received in 47% and care, or extra care, was needed in 41.3%. Treatment was the type of care most often received (29.5%) and needed (17.2%). However, for information and psychosocial care, the care needed (12.2 and 9.9%, respectively) was higher than the care received (7.6 and 5.9%, respectively). Thirty-four percent of all most-important secondary conditions were perceived as preventable, the rate increasing to 52.8% for pressure sores, of which 29.9% were considered to be preventable by the participants themselves. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed substantial unmet care needs in persons with long-term SCI living at home and underlines the further improvement of long-term care for this group. Information, psychosocial care and self-efficacy seem to be the areas to be enhanced.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the nurses' workload in care of the neurological patients operated in a department of urology and compare it to the nurses' workload of oncological patients. METHOD: Between 2006 and 2007, a prospective study was realized in 15 consecutive patients with neurogenic voiding dysfunction managed by laparoscopic cystectomy and ileal conduit urinary diversion. The nurses' workload was assessed by the soins infirmiers individualisés à la personne soignée (SIIPS) indicator. Three types of care were so estimated: basic care, technical care and relational care. Results were compared with the first 15 patients in whom, during the same period, a laparoscopic cystectomy and ileal conduit urinary diversion was performed to treat a bladder cancer. RESULTS: The nurses' workload in basic care was higher for the neurological patient's compared to the oncological patients the day before the intervention and from the third postoperative day until the 8th postoperative day. The nurses' workload in relational care was higher in the neurological patient's the 2nd, 3rd, 6th and 7th postoperative days. No difference was noted in terms of technical care between both groups. CONCLUSION: Except the operative day and the first postoperative day, the nurses' workload in relational and basic care is higher in the neurological patient's than in the oncological patients. No difference was noted in terms of technical care between both groups.

Los programas de adiestramiento o reeducación vesical son esenciales para el éxito de las metas de rehabilitación final de cada persona. Estos programas deben incorporarse al plan total de asistencia de enfermería, de modo que todos los tur- nos de personal de enfermería asistan al paciente en unaforma coherente y significativa. Por supuesto, si el paciente alcanza finalmente el control de la vejiga dependerá de la causa de la pérdida de su control, del grado de lesión cerebraly de las infecciones u otras complicaciones que existan. Laintervención de la enfermera en esta cuestión debe individua- lizarse, ser ingeniosa y rigurosa.

The consequences of malignant spinal cord compression (MSCC) can be devastating. If not detected early, MSCC can result in paralysis and significant bowel and bladder dysfunction that is not improved by treatment. Patients have to cope with sudden and unexpected disability alongside a diagnosis of advanced cancer. A multidisciplinary group was established within a cancer centre to review the care of patients with MSCC. Two linked studies were carried out: a staff questionnaire sent to senior medical staff and all nurses and an audit of documentation. The documentation audit reviewed the notes of 50 patients who had received radiotherapy for MSCC. The symptoms patients presented with on admission and before discharge demonstrated that many experienced significant physical problems as a consequence of developing MSCC. Usually, these symptoms were either unaffected by treatment, or had deteriorated further by the time of their discharge from hospital. The average number of days between admission with MSCC and death was 58.6 days (range 2 to 319 days). The project identified variations in practice in a range of aspects of care and provided clear evidence for the need to develop interventions in relation to specific concerns.
