Conversion to Intermittent Self-Catheterization Simplified

Abstract
Patients with indwelling catheters often resist conversion to intermittent self-catheterization because they fear urine leakage between catheterizations. Male patients were tanght to catheterize themselves through the lumen of an external condom catheter, which they wear until they achieve continence and feel safe with the new method. The effectiveness of this approach to conversion to self-catheterization is reported.
