What else can I help you with?
What is gross prostatomegaly is noted with significant postvoid residual?
Prostatomegaly means that the prostate is enlarged. Post-void residual means that the bladder does not completely empty after you pee.
What is post micturation residue?
You may be thinking of post micturation residual urine. This is what it is called in medical terminology when someone is unable to completely empty their urinary bladder when they urinate. There can be urine still left in the bladder that can't be emptied for different reasons (prostate enlargement in men, bladder weakness from childbirth in women, etc.). The amount of "residual" (left over) urine in the bladder is measured to see how big the problem may be. If allowed to sit and not be emptied, this residual urine can cause chronic infections and other urinary system problems.Measuring the retained urine can be done by using a tube (catheter) to drain the urine from the bladder and then measure the amount, or it can be done by using a nifty non-invasive hand-held ultrasonic bladder scanner that can measure urinary retention from the outside.These measurements of the residual urine are also used when a person has needed a urinary catheter for a while during an illness, injury, or after surgery but now has had it removed, so that it can be checked to be sure that the bladder is fully functioning again and ready and able to empty itself. The catheter may need to be put back in place for a while if there is still too much "residual".This is also called "Post-void residual urine". Voiding and micturating are words that both mean "urinating."If the question is about a residue left in the bladder after urinating, then that could be referencing kidney or bladder stones, sludge in the bladder from an infection, or other matter left in the bladder that could not be eliminated or passed. But that is not usually referred to as "post micturation residue", more likely it would be called "debris" in the bladder or the actual name of the particular "residue/matter" such as bladder stones (cystoliths), or other medical terms for the specific condition.
After a trial without catheter how much urine does there have to be in your bladder for you to be recatheterised bladder scan?
Usually guidelines vary as to how much urine there has to be within the bladder. This amount can be assessed either by a bladder scanner or by inserting a catheter, draining the urine, and removing it or keeping it there if the amount is over the limit stipulated by the guidelines available. The amount of urine (residual urine) is between 150mls (least amount found in the literature and 250mls. Obviously, the amount alone is not a good indication. The number of previous voiding episodes and the amount voided in each, together with age and thickness of the bladder wall are things to be considered. For example, is one has passed an average of 150mls of urine per void on 3 or 4 occasions, a residual on scan of 150mls will not warrant catheterisation since most likely that will be voided in the next void. What I mean is that there is no cut off point and the picture is different for every patient seen.
What should the nurse tell the patient if he complains of pain and dribbling of urine at 1st void after an indwelling catheter has been removed from a prostatectomy on the second post operative day?
complaints are common and will improve over the next few days
The term urinate and void are the same thing true or false?
When you urinate, you void your bladder, so they are the same. Void means "empty" or "to emptly" in medical terminology..ANSWERto void something means it is non existent, to empty your bladder just means that you are emptying it of urine but it isn't void of urine as the bladder remains with moisture in it and is still a bladder. To void is to make it extinguished from reality, and is not the same. So the answer is "false"Clarification:Medical professionals use the term "void" when referring to the emptying of the bladder. The first answer is correct - they are they same when referring to urination. So the answer in reference to the question is "true".Webster's definition of ''void'' is 1. not legally binding, invalid; 2. having no contents, empty."

Do outstretched bladders go back to normal?
Acutely outstretched bladders go to normal size almost immediately after you void the urine. In chronic obstruction the bladder may get thicker also. This will be reversed to original size, once the stricture of urethra is corrected, although it may take longer time.
Is the time of day a factor when collecting a urine sample?
It can be. The first void of the morning is usually the most concentrated, which helps when trying to do pregnancy tests or microalbumin-creatinine ratios.

How does parasympathetic stimutaion effect the bowel?
The parasympathetic effect on urination will be that of bladder stimulation and resultant voiding of urine. If this stimulation is ecessive it will result in the bladder not being able to hold the urine until voluntary voiding of the urine thus a clinical effect of urinary incontinet results because of lack of control of bladder contraction by the individual.
