Spina bifida (SB) is a neural tube defect that causes many physical and mental disabilities. Bowel and bladder incontinence is the disability seen most often in these students that requires the school nurse's attention. Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) provides the student with SB a vehicle to reach a satisfactory level of continence, helps build self-esteem, and allows the student greater independence. The school nurse assists the student with SB with CIC in the school setting and reinforces the importance of correct technique with the student, family, and other personnel caring for the student. The success of a continence management program at school is dependent on all these individuals working together with the common goal of maintaining normal renal function, gaining urinary continence, and promoting independence of the student.
脊柱裂（SB）是一种神经管缺陷，会导致许多身体和精神残疾。大小便失禁是这些学生中最常见的残疾，需要学校护士予以关注。清洁间歇性导尿（CIC）为患有脊柱裂的学生提供了一种达到满意控尿水平的手段，有助于建立自尊，并使学生获得更大的独立性。学校护士在学校环境中协助患有脊柱裂的学生进行清洁间歇性导尿，并向学生、家庭及其他照顾该学生的人员强化正确操作技术的重要性。学校控尿管理计划的成功取决于所有这些人共同努力，以实现维持正常肾功能、实现尿失禁控制以及促进学生独立的共同目标。
