Bladder spasm following transurethral surgery.
This article describes a study carried out to determine the incidence of bladder spasm and any common factors among patients presenting with bladder spasm in the recovery unit following transurethral surgery. Data was collected retrospectively from 200 sets of patient notes. The findings suggest that bladder spasm is common following transurethral surgery and that certain surgical procedures are more likely to result in bladder spasm.
