A survey of 97 elderly catheterized patients revealed the catheter-related problems of leaking, blocking, need for irrigation, odour and irritation. Details were taken of factors thought to be related to the problems and the data were analysed by using stepwise forward multiple regression. Hospital and community patients were found to have different problems. Females in both groups had more problems than males. For hospital patients, larger catheters were found to be associated with most problems, particularly leaking and blocking. For community patients, immobility and daily changing of drainage bags were major problem causers. The common nursing practice of changing to wider-diameter catheters in an attempt to prevent bypassing is wrong.
对97名老年导尿患者的一项调查揭示了与导尿管相关的问题，如渗漏、堵塞、需要冲洗、异味和刺激。记录了被认为与这些问题相关的因素的详细信息，并使用逐步向前多元回归对数据进行了分析。发现医院患者和社区患者存在不同的问题。两组中的女性比男性有更多问题。对于医院患者，发现较大尺寸的导尿管与大多数问题相关，尤其是渗漏和堵塞。对于社区患者，行动不便和每天更换引流袋是主要的问题成因。试图通过更换为更大直径的导尿管来防止尿液旁流这种常见的护理做法是错误的。
