| Popis: | Intermittent self-catheterisation (ISC) is recognised as the gold standard for the treatment of neurological bladders. ISC involves the introduction of a catheter by the patient into the bladder and its immediate removal when drainage stops. This process needs to be repeated four to six times a day. Therapeutic patient education (TPE) is commonly used nowadays to treat and care for patients with chronic disease.
