Synopsis:

This study showed that the incidence of catheterrelated bladder discomfort (CRBD) was 82.3% at day 1 in patients undergoing transurethral bladder tumour resection (TURB) and reduced to 23.2% at day 3. Being male, and aged < 65 years, were identified as independent factors associated with moderate or severe CRBD.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) has suggested a large inter- and intraindividual variation in patients after transurethral resection of the bladder tumour (TURB), emphasizing the need for valid predictors and improved treatment. We performed a prospective observational study to determine the incidence and predictors of early postoperative CRBD in patients undergoing TURB.
