A Retrospective Cohort Study of At-Home Catheter Removal After Urogynecologic Surgery
(Abstracted from Urogynecology (Phila) 2024;30:550–556) Urogynecologic surgery can result in a variety of complications, but 1 of the most common is postoperative urinary retention (POUR), which requires postoperative catheterization. The current standard of care for patients who fail a voiding trial (VT) after surgery involves discharge with a catheter and return to the office for a repeat VT, which can be inconvenient and significantly increase the burden on patients and facilities.
