What Should Patients Monitor While Performing Intermittent Catheterization?
Patients should monitor for signs of infection, such as fever, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, and discomfort during urination. They should also watch for any blood in the urine or unusual pain, which could indicate trauma or other complications. Regular follow-ups with healthcare providers are recommended to ensure that the procedure is being performed correctly and to address any arising issues promptly.
