| Core Tip |
Recurrent suprapubic catheter blockage is a major burden for patients with neurogenic bladder. This observational product evaluation explored the feasibility and patient-reported outcomes of an acoustic wave device designed to reduce biofilm formation on indwelling catheters. While limited by small sample size and lack of a control group, the findings suggest potential benefits in selected patients and support further controlled investigation. |
