No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There are no set national guidelines for the management of postpartum bladder. There is little evidence on the management of postpartum urinary retention and many hospitals have implemented their own postpartum bladder care protocols.

Acupuncture has been implemented as an alternative course of treatment for urinary retention with reports of spontaneous restoring of micturition in all of the patients. The investigators aimed at examining if acupuncture is a useful tool to treat postpartum urinary retention.
