Abstract
Objective To investigate the effect of individual urination training before renal biopsy on urination and comfort for patients after renal biopsy. Methods One hundred and sixty for hospitalized patients under renal biopsy were randomly selected as subjects. Study group included 81 patients who were individually trained with urination. Control group included 83 patients who were routinely educated before renal biopsy. The methods of urination and comfort between two groups were compared. Results The percentage of autonomous urination after renal biopsy in patients individually trained with urination was higher than that in control group (P <0. 01 ). The comfort of study group was also superior to that of control group (P < 0. 01). There was statistically significant difference between two groups. Conclusions Individual urination training could effectively promote autonomous urination, reduce urinary retention and improve the comfort for patients under renal biopsy. Key words: Renal biopsy; Urination training; Comfort
