ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Glycerine Enema on patients with urinary retention after coronary interventional procedures. MethodsBetween October 2011 and October 2012, 100 patients with urinary retention after coronary intervention were randomized into experimental group (enema group) and control group (conventional treatment group). The clinical effect of the two methods were compared between the two groups. ResultsThe effective rate in the experimental group was 88.0% while in the control group was 54.0%, and the difference between the two groups was statistically signifi cant (P<0.05). ConclusionThe effect of Glycerine Enema on patients with urinary retention after coronary intervention is obvious and signifi cant.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of postoperative no indwelling urethral catheters in lung operation. MethodsIn this prospective cohort study, we recruited 100 patients who were scheduled for pulmonary lobectomy under general anesthesia in a single institution of Thoracic Surgery Department in West China Hospital between April and December 2014. These patients were divided into two groups including a no indwelled urethral catheter group (NIUC, 50 patients) and an indwelled urethral catheter group (IUC, 50 patients). The clinical effect was compared between the two groups. ResultsThere was no statistical difference in incidence of postoperative urinary retention or urinary tract infection between the two groups (P=0.433, 0.050). However, the comfort degrees(0 degree) of patients in the NICU group was significantly higher than that of the ICU group with a statistical difference (P=0.002). While postoperative hospitalization time in the NICU group (P=0.023) was shorter than that in the ICU group (P=0.004). Prostatic hyperplasia was the high risk factor for the lung postoperative urinary retention (P=0.056). ConclusionPostoperative no indwelling urethral catheters in lung operation has the benefit of improving the comfort degrees of inpatients and increasing the postoperation urinary retention.
Objective To investigate the risk factors of postoperative urinary retention of non-small cell lung cancer patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy without indwelling urinary catheterization. Methods In this prospective trial, we recruited 148 patients who were scheduled for lung cancer lobectomy under general anesthesia by VATS in Department of Thoracic Surgery in West China Hospital from July through December 2015. These patients were divided into two groups including a trial group and a control group. There was no indwelled urethral catheter in the trial group. And the patients in the control group were indwelled urethral catheter routinely. Postoperative urinary retention, urinary tract infection, the postoperative hospitalization duration and the clinical data were recorded. Results There was no significant difference between the trial group and the control group in postoperative urinary retention (9.46% vs. 6.76%, P=0.087). However, the ratios of the male patients and the patients with history of abdomen operation, and international prostate symptom score (IPSS) of the urinary retention patients (83.33%, 33.33%, 26.55±7.00) were statistically higher than those of the patients without urinary retention (56.62%, 0.00%, 15.31±8.31, P=0.017, P=0.000, P=0.031). Postoperative urinary tract infection rates in the trial group and the patients with urinary retention (4.05%，25%) were statistically higher than those in the control group and the patients without urinary retention (1.35%, 0.74%, P=0.049, P=0.048). Conclusion The risk factors of postoperative urinary retention patients with non-small cell lung cancer undergoing VATS lobectomy are male patients, history of abdomen operation, and moderate to severe hyperplasia of prostate.
