|
Purpose: The aims of this studywere to develop and apply the urinary elimination facilitation program for stroke patients with urinary disorders and evaluate the effectiveness of the program.
Methods: This study was conducted using the non-equivalent control group pre- posttest design. The participants included 23 patients in the control group and 22 in the experimental group. Data were collected from Nov. 25, 2013 to Nov. 25, 2014 in acute rehabilitation inpatient wards. For the final analysis, 35 patients’ data were utilized 17 in the control group and 18 in the experimental group. The developed urinary elimination facilitation program was continued for 7 days and the program consisted of logging urination, monitoring timely voiding, assisting urinary elimination, and stimulating urination using sound. The data were analyized using the SPSS-win (version 21).
Results: The number of urinary catheterization and the urinary discomfort were significantly improved in the experimental group compared to the control group. However residual urine and the occurrence of urinary tract infections were not significantly different between the experimental and control groups.
Conclusion: The results of this study indicated that the urinary elimination intervention program for stroke patients with urination disorder could be useful in decreasing the number of urinary catheterization and the urinary discomfort.
