Disease relevance of Urinary Catheterization

• Groups of pregnant mice were infected with E. coli Dr(+) or its isogenic mutant which does not bear the Dr adhesin (E. coli Dr(-)) by urethral catheterization [1].
• Risk factors for MRSA infections were diabetes mellitus and peripheral vascular disease, for R-GNB infections were intermittent urethral catheterization and indwelling urethral catheters, and no one factor was associated with R-ENT infection [2].

High impact information on Urinary Catheterization

• Nonvalue of neomycin instillation after intermittent urinary catheterization [3].
• We reviewed the outcomes of patients undergoing a novel single stage percutaneous nephrolithotomy technique for radiopaque caliceal diverticular stones that eliminates ureteral catheterization and entry into the renal collecting system [4].
• Endoscopic assessment was performed by cystoscopic inspection of stained urine flow from the orifices following the administration of intravenous dye (indigo carmine) or by retrograde ureteral catheterization [5].
• Effectiveness of lidocaine lubricant for discomfort during pediatric urethral catheterization [6].
• By logistic regression analysis, only previous administration of beta-lactams (OR: 6.3; 95% CI: 1.12-20.0) and urinary catheterization (OR:4.2; 95% CI: 1.3-30.0) were identified as predictors of ampicillin resistance in enterococcal bacteraemic patients [7].

Biological context of Urinary Catheterization

• Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of each kidney was measured by the standard technique using constant infusions of 99mTc-DTPA, iothalamate, and creatinine following ureteral catheterization [8].

Anatomical context of Urinary Catheterization

• The severity of incontinence was analyzed according to patient age, weight of resected specimen, status of cancer stage, duration of neoadjuvant androgen blockade therapy, preoperative length of membranous urethra, and duration of urethral catheterization after surgery [9].
• CONCLUSION: These seven spinal cord injury patients achieved socially acceptable continence with improved quality of life, and enhanced sexuality with the intermittent urethral catheterization regime and intravesical oxybutynin therapy [10].

Associations of Urinary Catheterization with chemical compounds

• The following day iothalamate and creatinine clearances were measured by ureteral catheterization [11].
• The infection was successfully treated with fluconazole, a new triazole derivative, combined with ureteral catheterization [12].
• There were good correlations between differential GFR determined by iothalamate clearances at ureteral catheterization and all noninvasive methods involving radionuclides and DTPA2 ( r = 0.93-0.99) [13].
• METHODS: Obstetric patients who required urinary catheterization as part of their routine care were randomly assigned to either the "water" or "chlorhexidine" group with a sealed envelope [14].
• Although the infusion patients received a higher mean dose of bupivacaine (178 mg v. 130 mg), there was no difference between the groups with respect to mode of delivery, need for urinary catheterization, adverse cardiovascular effects on mother or fetus, or the time taken after delivery to recover sensation and motor power [15].

Gene context of Urinary Catheterization

• Intermittent urinary catheterization was associated with lower levels of CRP when compared with other methods of bladder management [16].
• Strategies for ureteral catheterization after antireflux surgery by the Cohen technique of transverse advancement [17].
• RESULTS: Urine cultures obtained at drainage were positive in 62.9% of percutaneous nephrostomy and 19.1% of retrograde ureteral catheterization patients [18].
• OBJECTIVE: To report the development and testing of a device for the noninvasive diagnosis of vesico-ureteric reflux (VUR) which avoids the need for urethral catheterization (currently required to reliably determine the presence of VUR), and which thus avoids the anxiety of parents and patients that causes many families to refuse such evaluation [19].
• METHODS: In rats fed either the NS or the LS diet for 12 days and prepared for clearance experiments with left ureteral catheterization, the renal functional responses of the left kidney were evaluated after intrarenal COX-2 inhibition with DuP-697 or NS-398 [20].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Urinary Catheterization

• Invasive monitoring and treatment procedures included intravenous catheterization, urinary catheterization, and parenteral nutritional and ventilatory support [21].
• Residual urine volume in the bladder was measured using a gamma camera and Tc-99m DTPA labeling of the urine and was compared to urethral catheterization in 21 male patients [22].
• (2) Risk of UTI from urinary catheterization and antibiotic prophylaxis was additive for these functionally impaired patients [23].
