Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare the postoperative outcomes and urinary retention rate of urinary catheters removed after 6, 12, and 24 hours in cesarean section (CS) patients.
Materials and Methods: Pregnant women who had undergone term elective CS for previous CS indication under spinal anesthesia were included in this prospective study. Patients were divided into three groups in a 1:1:1 ratio and the patient’s urinary catheter was removed after 6, 12, and 24 hours. The residual urine amount was calculated with ultrasonography. In addition, the time until ambulation, recatheterization rate, urinary tract infection (UTI) symptoms, and the duration of hospitalization were recorded.
Results: The urinary retention rate (13.9 %) was significantly higher in the group whose catheter was removed after 6 hours. The time to the first ambulation was affected by the duration of the catheter and was significantly higher in the group whose catheter was removed after 24 hours (p=0.038). Additionally, dysuria and UTI were seen significantly higher in the group whose catheter was removed after 24 hours. However, the length of hospital stay was similar between the three groups.
Conclusion: Considering the benefit-harm balance, removal of the urinary catheter at 12 hours after CS could be suggested. However, the duration of urinary catheter removal should be individualized.

Sezaryen doğumda üriner kateter çıkarma zamanlamasının üriner retansiyona etkisi

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmada sezaryen (CS) hastalarında 6, 12 ve 24 saat sonra çıkarılan idrar sondalarının ameliyat sonrası sonuçlarını ve üriner retansiyonlarını karşılaştırmayı amaçladık.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu prospektif çalışmaya önceden sezaryen ameliyatı olan ve bu endikasyon nedeniyle spinal anestezi altında elektif sezaryen uygulanan gebeler dahil edildi. Hastalar 1:1:1 oranında üç gruba ayrıldı ve 6,12 ve 24 saat sonra hastaların sondası çekildi. Rezidüel idrar miktarı ultrasonografi ile ölçüldü. Ayrıca ambulasyona kadar geçen süre, rekateterizasyon oranı, idrar yolu enfeksiyonu (İYE) semptomları ve hastanede kalış süreleri kaydedildi.
Bulgular: 6 saat sonra kateteri çıkarılan grupta üriner retansiyonu oranı (13.9 %) anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti. İlk ambulasyona kadar geçen süre kateterin süresinden etkilenmişti ve kateteri 24 saat sonra çıkarılan grupta anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti (p=0.038). Ek olarak, 24 saat sonra kateteri çıkarılan grupta dizüri ve İYE anlamlı olarak daha yüksek izlendi. Ancak hastanede kalış süresi üç grup arasında benzerdi.
Sonuç: Yarar-zarar dengesi göz önüne alındığında, CS’den 12 saat sonra kateterin çıkarılması önerilebilir. Ancak, yönetim bireyselleştirilmelidir.
