ObjectiveTo investigate the occurrence of indwelling urinary catheter in patients receiving thoracoscopic lobectomy and relevant risk factors.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of the 737 patients who received thoracoscopic lobectomy in our hospital and analyzed the risk factors of indwelling urinary catheter during postoperative hospitalization using univariate analysis and multiple-variate logistic regression analysis between December 2018 and May 2019. There were 253 males and 484 females at median age of 57 (50, 64) years.ResultsA percentage of 14.4% (106/737) of the patients adopted postoperative indwelling urinary catheter. Univariate regression analysis showed that gender and postoperative bedridden time were risk factors for indwelling urinary catheter in the patients after thoracoscopic lobectomy (P<0.05). Multiple-variate logistic regression analysis showed that male gender (OR=2.018, 95% CI 1.316-3.096, P<0.001) and postoperative bedridden time >18 hours (OR=2.298, 95%CI 1.502-3.516, P<0.001) were the independent risk factors for indwelling urinary catheter.ConclusionMale gender and those with longer postoperative bedridden time are high-risk population to indwell urinary catheter. Positive measures should be taken to reduce the chance of indwelling urinary catheter.
ObjectiveTo explore the independent risk factors for postoperative retention of urinary catheters in the ward of lung tumor patients due to urinary retention under the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS).MethodsSeventy-five patients with lung tumors who had urinary catheters left in the postoperative ward between June 2019 and August 2019 were selected as a case group, and 75 patients with lung tumors who did not have urinary catheters in the perioperative period as a control group. Independent risk factors for indwelling urinary catheters in the postoperative ward were screened by univariate and multiple-variate logistic stepwise regression analysis.ResultsThere were 45 males and 30 females in the case group with an average age of 55.33±10.78 years, 28 males and 47 females in the control group with an average age of 57.12±10.06 years. Univariate analysis showed that gender, operative time>2 h, intraoperative fluid volume≥1 200 mL, and fluid volume within 6 h of returning to the ward after surgery>1 200 mL were associated with the occurrence of indwelling urinary catheters in patients with lung tumors in postoperative wards (P<0.05). Multiple-variate logistic regression showed that male (OR=2.311, 95%CI 1.173-4.552, P=0.015), infusion volume within 6 h of returning to the ward after surgery>1 200 mL (OR=2.491, 95%CI 1.149-5.401, P=0.021) and intraoperative infusion volume≥1 200 mL (OR=2.105, 95%CI 1.022-4.340, P=0.044) were independent risk factors for postoperative retention of urinary catheters in patients with lung tumors.ConclusionThe occurrence of indwelling urinary catheter in lung tumor patients under the ERAS concept is the result of a combination of factors, and patients who are male, have infusion volume>1 200 mL within 6 h of returning to the ward after surgery, and have intraoperative infusion volume≥1 200mL are the high-risk group for postoperative ward indwelling urinary catheter, and health care personnel should strengthen the assessment and observation, provide targeted health education, appropriately control the perioperative fluid volume, and take other measures to reduce the occurrence of indwelling urinary catheters due to urinary retention postoperatively in ward.
