title: Clinical conversations: nurses who work with patients with interstitial cystitis.
abstract: Nurses who work with patients with interstitial cystitis agree these patients demand considerable clinician time. Interstitial cystitis is a chronic disease with several etiologic theories explaining the syndrome. Diagnosis and treatment are already updated in the preceding article by Dr. Peters. Conversations with nurses who practice in different areas of the United States extend this discussion by addressing patient issues and offering specific nursing advice.
