Activities of Daily Living Level is Associated With Recovery of Catheter-Free Urination Among Patients Hospitalized in an Acute Care Hospital
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to determine the level of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) necessary for patients in an acute care hospital to achieve catheter-free urination after experiencing urinary retention or incontinence. Their findings revealed that a higher score on the motor component of the Functional Independence Measure (mFIM) was significantly associated with successful catheter-free urination, identifying a cutoff score of 30 points as indicative of this outcome. This suggests that improving ADL capabilities is crucial for enhancing urinary independence in hospitalized patients.
