•Utilize a voiding algorithm to standardize management of POUR in phase II patients.
SERVICE AREA (Edit this in the Master Slide Area)
Four-time ANCC Magnet-recognized (2002, 2005, 2010, 2014)
•Inpatient Pavilion
- 611 Licensed Beds
•In 2015
-Over 13,900 OR cases
-Over 4,000 outpatients
SERVICE AREA (Edit this in the Master Slide Area)
•Risk management case in 2013- Patient discharged home after a gynecologic
procedure.
- Later, patient went to emergency department (ED) due to pain and an inability to void.
- Catheter placed in ED yielding over 3 liters of urine.
•PACU nurse documentation- Patient voided, but amount not measured.
- Nurse communicated exclusively with the anesthesiologist.
SERVICE AREA (Edit this in the Master Slide Area)
•Nursing and physician practices for managing POUR were inconsistent and needed standardization.

• Informal survey of physicians
- 21 out of 39 (54%) physicians assumed that patients voided prior to discharge.
• Informal survey of RNs to identify barriers to measuring urine output and bladder scanning.
• All 37 PACU nurses completed a ten question multiple choice test on POUR concepts to assess baseline knowledge.
- Test average was 33%
- Knowledge Gap!

Physician order to void prior to discharge
SERVICE AREA (Edit this in the Master Slide Area)
• Phase II patient returned to Emergency Department with POUR in summer of 2014.
- No physician order for “voiding prior to discharge instructions.”
- The Phase I and Phase II PACU nurses assumed that since an order was not written, the patient was not required to void before going home.
Is patient at risk for POUR?
Outpatient with low risk
for POUR
Discharge
Outpatient with high
risk for POUR. Advocate for
"voiding prior to discharge" order if not already written.
Unable to void
Assess volume by
bladder scan
Bladder volume
> 400 ml
Call surgeon for catheterization
order
Bladder volume
≤ 400 ml
Notify surgeon of scanned volume. MD must clear
patient for discharge.
Advise patient to seek medical assistance if
unable to void within 6-8 hours.
Discharge
Void
< 150 ml ≥ 150 ml

SERVICE AREA (Edit this in the Master Slide Area)
Since the 2015 revised voiding algorithm:
•There have been NO recorded readmissions from POUR
•PACU nurses consistently measure urine output and bladder scan appropriate patients.
•Patient care and safety improved in PACU by managing POUR.
SERVICE AREA (Edit this in the Master Slide Area)
•You are your patient’s advocate.
•Recognize risk factors for POUR and if patient needs to void prior to discharge.
•Use the voiding algorithm.
•Measure and bladder scan.
