title: Development of an in vitro bladder model.
abstract: The first of the three articles in this series (1) expounded the case for a broader approach to research design in nursing. In particular, the experimental approach and the use of laboratory studies were highlighted as areas that nurses have tended to neglect. This second article explores the development of an in vitro bladder model for use in experiments examining infections in catheterised patients.
