Popis: Background: Postoperative urinary retention is a common complication after total hip and knee arthroplasty. Postvoid residual (PVR) scanning is a noninvasive method commonly used to evaluate this complication. Preoperatively increased PVR (PrePVR) has been suggested as a risk factor for postoperative catheterization. The aim of this study was to prospectively assess the importance of PrePVR and its relationship with urinary catheter placement, urology consult, and length of stay postoperatively. Methods: Data was prospectively and consecutively collected at a single institution. All patients were bladder scanned preoperatively to collect PrePVR and subsequently scanned on postoperative days zero and one to collect Postoperative PVR. Chart review was performed to determine the number of straight catheterizations, Foley placement, urology consult and length of stay as well as patient demographics. Results: Ninety-four consecutive patients were included in this study. There was a significantly increased postoperative PVR as compared to PrePVR (48.0 mL vs 21.0 mL; P < .0001). A PrePVR >50 mL was not associated with a significant difference in PVR between before and after surgery (P = .13); length of stay (P = .08); need for straight catheterization (P = .11); postoperative Foley placement (P = 1.0); or urology consult (P = 1.0). The only significant risk factor identified for postoperative Foley catheter placement was age (77.7 vs 64.2; P = .02). Conclusions: PrePVR >50 mL was not an accurate predictor of postoperative urinary retention after total joint arthroplasty. PVR significantly increased in all patients. Male sex and increasing age were associated with large increases in PVR postoperatively and an increased risk of catheterization.
