  • Title: The team approach to urinary bladder management in spinal cord injury patients: a 26-year retrospective look at the Highland View Hospital Urinary Catheter Care Team.
    Author: Lindan R, Leffler E, Freehafer AA.
    Journal: Paraplegia; 1990 Jun; 28(5):314-7. PubMed ID: 2235039.
    Abstract:
    The Highland View Hospital Urinary Catheter Care Team was organised in 1962, primarily in response to the problems of increasingly drug resistant urinary infections and their complications in a chronic disease population which included patients with strokes, renal and liver failure and heart disease as well as those with spinal cord injury (SCI). When the spinal cord injury centre was formed in 1970 the team became an integral part of the service. The early problems in organising the team, its evolution into a valuable, economically viable, patient care service and its role in urological clinical research, are discussed.
