Abstrakt: - Cystoscopy was performed on a control group of 74 patients under full sterile precautions and on a study group of 83 patients under aseptic conditions, which required fewer materials. The incidence of urinary infections in the two groups was 4 and 6% respectively; this difference is not statistically significant. Rigors were rare in both groups (?1%). The financial savings achieved by using an aseptic technique for out-patient cystoscopy are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
