Summary

The objective of this trial is to investigate the effect of bladder training on the incidence of re-catheterization after proctectomy. In this study, the bladder training include intermittent urethral catheter clamping combined with active urination training, which we called ICCAUT strategy. This prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial will enroll patients with rectal cancer who will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the ICCAUT group or the free-drainage group. In the ICCAUT group, patients will undergo intermittent clamping of the urinary catheter before its removal. Each time the catheter is released, we will encourage the patients to actively initiate urination to facilitate complete bladder emptying. While patients in the free-drainage group will not undergo any specific training. The urinary catheter will be removed on the second postoperative day for both groups. The primary endpoint is the incidence of re-catheterization due to urinary retention. Secondary endpoints include urinary tract infection (UTI), time of first urination after catheter removal, residual urine volume after the first urination, postoperative morbidity and mortality within 30 days, as well as urinary function within 30 postoperative days.

PROCEDURE

ICCAUT

In this study ,the ICCAUT strategy include intermittent catheter clamping and active urination training. For patients in the ICCAUT group, intermittent catheter clamping will be initiated at 9:00 AM. The catheter will be clamped for 3 h, followed by a 5-minute release, which is one cycle. The next cycle will begin after the cycle was completed. Catheter training is to conclude at 10:00 PM on the first postoperative day, and the catheter is left open during the night. At 6:00 AM on the second postoperative day, another cycle of catheter training will be performed, with the catheter removed at 9:00 AM. During the training period, if the patient experiences a strong urge to urinate before the 3-hour clamping time is over, the clamping can be released in advance for 5 min, allowing the patient to proceed to the next cycle of bladder training. Each time the catheter is released, we will encourage the patients to actively initiate urination to facilitate complete bladder emptying.

PROCEDURE

Free drainage

For patients in the free draining group, no intervention will be performed on the catheter during this period. The catheter will be removed at 9:00 AM on postoperative day two.
