About this trial

In this study, the investigators summarize the existing best evidence of intermittent catheterization in patients after radical cervical cancer surgery from the perspective of clinical translation of evidence through systematic search, evaluation and evidence integration, construct a nursing protocol of intermittent catheterization for patients after radical cervical cancer surgery based on the best evidence combined with the clinical context, and explore the clinical application effect of the above nursing protocol. It will provide a reference basis for the development of the standardization and management of intermittent catheterization for postoperative patients with cervical cancer in China, as well as the development of guidelines for intermittent catheterization after radical cervical cancer surgery.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of urinary complications

the occurrence of urologic complications within 2 months after discharge of the patients from the hospital for follow-up, which in this study included urinary tract infections, urethral injuries, bladder stones, hydronephrosis

Time frame
Within 2 months of discharge

Secondary outcomes

1

Intermittent Catheterization Compliance Scale

A questionnaire was used to investigate patients' adherence to carrying out intermittent catheterization before the intervention, immediately after the intervention, and 1 month after discharge from the hospital. Higher scores indicate better adherence.

Time frame
Pre-intervention, immediately post-intervention, and 1 month post-discharge
2

12-Item Short Form Survey

A questionnaire was used to investigate patients' quality of life before and immediately after the intervention and 1 month after discharge. Higher scores indicate better quality of life.

Time frame
Pre-intervention, immediately post-intervention, and 1 month post-discharge
3

Self-Rating Anxiety Scale

A questionnaire was used to investigate patients' anxiety before and immediately after the intervention and 1 month after discharge from the hospital. Higher scores indicate greater anxiety.

Time frame
Pre-intervention, immediately post-intervention, and 1 month post-discharge
4

Intermittent Catheterization Confidence Scale

A questionnaire was used to investigate patients' self-efficacy before and immediately after the intervention and 1 month after discharge from the hospital. Higher scores indicate greater confidence.

Time frame
Pre-intervention, immediately post-intervention, and 1 month post-discharge
