We have investigated the value of intermittent catheterization in the management of post-operative urinary retention occurring in elderly women after operative fixation of lower limb fracture. Eleven patients, aged 70-86, underwent intermittent catheterization two or three times daily for between 9 and 40 days as inpatients, and one patient continued intermittent self-catheterization at home for 3 months after discharge. Ten patients became continent. One severely disabled lady required an indwelling catheter. Intermittent catheterization is safe and practical, with several advantages over indwelling catheterization in the management of post-operative urinary retention during inpatient rehabilitation.
我们研究了间歇性导尿在老年女性下肢骨折手术固定后发生的术后尿潴留管理中的价值。11名年龄在70 - 86岁之间的患者作为住院患者，每天进行2至3次间歇性导尿，持续9至40天，1名患者出院后在家中继续进行间歇性自我导尿3个月。10名患者恢复了自主排尿。1名严重残疾的女士需要留置导尿管。在住院康复期间管理术后尿潴留方面，间歇性导尿安全且实用，与留置导尿相比有几个优点。
