Bladder drainage methods for acute urinary retention due to benign prostatic hyperplasia: patient-preference analysis

Вестник урологии
Introduction. Currently, the classical management of acute urinary retention creates a certain discomfort for the patient and leads to explore alternative method of management, such as intermittent catheterization, including focusing on the patient ...

Durable Bio‐Based Nanocomposite Coating on Urinary Catheters Prevents Early‐Stage CAUTI‐Associated Pathogenicity

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A stable bio‐based nanocomposite coating for urinary catheters is developed using a simple, environmentally‐friendly sonochemical process. The coating, integrating antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and antioxidant properties, effectively tackled multiple early‐stage pathogenic factors associated with catheter‐associated urinary tract infections.

A multivariate Bayesian learning approach for improved detection of doping in athletes using urinary steroid profiles [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Biomarker analysis of athletes' urinary steroid profiles is crucial for the success of anti-doping efforts. Current statistical analysis methods generate personalised limits for each athlete based on univariate modelling of longitudinal biomarker values from the urinary steroid profile.

Exploit fully automatic low-level segmented PET data for training high-level deep learning algorithms for the corresponding CT data [PDF]

PLoS ONE 14(3): e0212550 (2019), 2019
We present an approach for fully automatic urinary bladder segmentation in CT images with artificial neural networks in this study. Automatic medical image analysis has become an invaluable tool in the different treatment stages of diseases. Especially medical image segmentation plays a vital role, since segmentation is often the initial step in an ...

Washout policies in long-term indwelling urinary catheterisation in adults [PDF]

, 2017
Background  People requiring long-term bladder draining with an indwelling catheter can experience catheter blockage. Regimens involving different solutions can be used to wash out catheters with the aim of preventing blockage.

A Bistable Assistive Device for Wireless Control of a Dysfunctional Bladder Under Minimal Stress

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper presents a wireless system designed to restore bladder function in patients with an underactive bladder (UAB). The system features a multilayered structure, combining a pre‐shaped restoration layer with a spring‐based actuator. The system delivers 95–100% voiding efficiency within a 10‐s activation while ensuring minimal stress on the ...

A Clinical and Finite Elements Study of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women Using Fluid-Structure Interactions [PDF]

, 2017
Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) or urine leakage from urethra occurs due to an increase in abdominal pressure resulting from stress like a cough or jumping height. SUI is more frequent among post-menopausal women. In the absence of bladder contraction, vesical pressure exceeds from urethral pressure leading to urine leakage. Despite a large number of
