Abstract:
Indwelling urinary catheterization is one of the most widely used invasive procedures in clinical practice, playing a critical role in disease diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring. In 2024, the European Association of Urology Nurses (EAUN) released the Best Practice Guidelines for Indwelling Urinary Catheterization in Adults-Transurethral and Suprapubic Catheterization (hereinafter referred to as the Guideline), aiming to provide evidence-based clinical guidance and health education information for healthcare professionals. This article interprets the section on "Nursing Principles" within the Guideline, which spans the entire process of catheter management. Key aspects covered include pre-insertion preparation, catheter insertion procedure, catheter maintenance and securement, observation of urine color, prevention of constipation, and catheter removal. The aim is to help urology nurses and related healthcare personnel gain an in-depth understanding of the recommendations in the Guideline, promote its standardized application in clinical practice, improve the quality of indwelling catheter care, and ensure patient safety.
