| Short-Term Catheter Management Options for Urinary Retention Following Pelvic Surgery: A Cost Analysis - Beyond the Abstract
|
| Rui Wang, MD and Elena Tunitsky-Bitton, MD
|
| The management of post-operative catheterization is especially important in the female pelvic reconstructive surgery population. Previous studies have compared short-term catheterization methods and have demonstrated similar patient satisfaction. However, there is a lack of cost comparison among these methods. In this study, we conducted a cost analysis of various catheterization approaches.
