abstract: The results of teaching the technique of clean intermittent self-catheterisation (CISC) to 20 elderly patients (aged 65-81 years) are reported. The patients were followed up for a maximum of 4 years. The use of this technique in the management of selected elderly patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction is discussed.
