Bladder emptying options for individuals in wheelchairs
Shoulder pain and falls associated with transfers are significant challenges for individuals living with SCI. By addressing these issues proactively through proper techniques, strengthening exercises, assistive devices, and reducing unnecessary transfers such as those to the bathroom with the use of set solution, individuals can enhance their mobility, reduce pain, and minimise the risk of falls.
Boost your knowledge: Insights from continence care nurses on how intermittent catheter with set solutions can help patients/clients with bladder emptying without the need to transfer.
