MATOUŠOVÁ, Martina
Urinary Bladder Evacuaton by means of CIC (clean intermittent catheterization). This Thesis deals with application of intermittent catheterization in treatment practice. This techique is used both, for clients with neurogenic disorder and clients with non {--} neurogenic disorder of urination. The Thesis was aimed at examination to what extent clients of a urodynamics advisory service are informed about the technique of urinary bladder drainage, whether the clients are able to perform urinary bladder drainage by means of the CIC technique themselves in normal living conditions, how clients using CIC are limited in normal home activities and to compare occurrense of urinary tract infections between clients with CIC and those with pernament catheter. A quantitative research survey method was applied to obtain the data for the Thesis. The data were collected by means of a questionnaire designed for clients of the urodynamics advisory service of the Hospital České Budějovice a.s. 100 questionnaires were distributed from January to March 2009. The return was 87 %. 87 questionnaires were returned, 5 of which had to be rejected for incomplete data. 82 complete filled in questionnaires (100 %) were used for the data processing. Four hypotheses were set. Hypothesis 1, clients are informed on the CIC technique, has been confirmed. Hypothesis 2, clients using CIC technique to drain their bladders have problems with urine evacuation in normal lives, has not been confirmed. Hypothesis 3, clients using the CIC technique are not limited in normal home activities has been confirmed. Hypothesis 4, clients with CIC have lower occurence of urinary tract infections than clients with permanent catheters has been confirmed. The research results will be provided to the Urology Department of Hospital České Budějovice a.s. to improve the care of clients using the CIC technique.
