Abstract
Clean intermittent self-catheterisation (CISC) is a treatment option for people with urinary incontinence-particularly those with neurogenic bladder dysfunction. When used for appropriate patients it has been shown to promote continence, maintain safe bladder function and improve quality of life. There is a range of different products available on prescription for patients, and community nurses are ideally placed to advise them regarding products and to offer choice to those performing CISC. CISC can promote privacy and dignity for patients with urinary incontinence due to impaired bladder emptying, and community nurses should offer this intervention to patients for whom it is suitable and support them in learning the technique.
