Determining the variables associated to clean intermittent self-catheterization adherence rate: one-year follow-up study

Abstract

Patients in CISC program present a reasonable adherence after one year. Women, neurogenic voiding dysfunction and patients under 40 years old were significantly more adherents. The psychological and social relationship status seems to positively interfere on adherence. CISC did not affect patient's QoL evaluated by WHOQoL-brief.
