ユニチカのBLADを検討した.麻痺膀胱,VUR症例を除いた尿道カテーテル留置患者に装着したところ,殆ど全ての患者で間歇排尿が可能であった.尿道カテーテル留置患者に用いた結果,尿混濁は2週後には比較的透明となり,細菌数も減少したWe investigated the effectiveness of the Bladder Assist Device on urinary tract infection of patients with indwelling catheters. The patients, except for those with cord bladder and vesicoureteral reflux, could urinate intermittently under the BLAD system. Irrigation of the bladder using BLAD made urine clear and decreased urinary bacteria. Because of intermittent urination in patients who had been using the BLAD system for two weeks, the urine became somewhat clear and the number of bacteria decreased. Combination of bladder irrigation and intermittent urination using this system may inhibit urinary tract infection of an indwelling catheter. BLAD is considered to be a useful device for patients with continuous indwelling catheters.
