Description
Jingwen Hu and five co-authors review trials of a small step used when a urine tube is taken out. Their review is from two thousand twenty-six. Most guides cover letting the small balloon at the tube tip drain on its own. Far less is known about putting a small amount of fluid back in after full drainage.
The team pooled forty-six trials from China with more than six thousand men and women. Putting fluid back in was linked to less pain during removal. It also seemed to lower the risk of urine being held back afterward. The trials varied a lot, though, and many used weak methods to assign patients. So the authors treat the gain as real but not yet firm.
