Summary
Catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) is a frequent complaint after urinary bladder catheterization which is commonly done in the perioperative period. CRBD shows similar symptoms to overactive bladder (OAB); so, drugs used for the management of OAB could influence symptoms of CRBD. Trospium chloride and gabapentin are effective in managing patient with OAB even the resistant cases. We will evaluate and compare the efficacy of both oral trospium and gabapentin on prevention of CRBD in the postoperative period in the ICU in in patients undergoing spinal surgery and requiring intraoperative catheterization of the urinary bladder.
