Title: [Suprapubic drainage of the urinary bladder]. Author: Draca P. Journal: Jugosl Ginekol Opstet; 1977; 17(5-6):365-8. PubMed ID: 618175. Abstract: The author describes the method of the suprapubic drainage of the urinary bladder by using the Snaider Urevac of the firm "Zimmer". In 20 patients all urinocultures sampled one and five days after the surgery were negative. The method involves no danger, it is simple and comfortable for the patient in comparison with the transurethral drainage. According to the initial experience of the author, the method of suprapubic drainage could be recommended for a more frequent use in the continuous drainage of the urine in the postoperative period of gynecological patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
