CHAPTER13 Renal medicine and urology
Incontinence ofurine
Involuntary loss of urine which is demonstrable and a social or hygienic problem. 1 in 3 with incontinence consult at outset, 1 in 3 consult later, 1 in 3 suer in silence. Opportunistic questioning can identify suerers.
History
• Frequency of complaint
• Volume passed
• Degree of incapacity
• Whether occurs with standing/ coughing/ sneezing
Examination
Abdominal including DRE— enlarged bladder, masses, loaded colon, faecal impaction, anal tone
Pelvic— prolapse, atrophy, neurological decit, retention of urine, and pelvic masses
Investigation Intake/ output diary (at least 3d including working and
leisure days)— evaluates problem and benchmark for progress (record drinks and passage of urine); Urine— RBCs, M,C&S; consider blood for U&E, eGFR FBC, FBG/ HbA1c if renal impairment/ DM is suspected.
Drugs that exacerbate/ cause incontinence Diuretics, antihistamines,
anxiolytics, α- blockers, sedatives and hypnotics, anticholinergic drugs, TCAs.
GP management 0 30% have a mixed pattern. Treat according to
dominant symptom. Try general measures before referring to urology/ gy­naecology or for further investigations.
Generalmeasures
• Manipulate uid intake:amount, type (avoid tea, coee, alcohol), timing
• Promote weight d
• Alter medication, e.g. timing of diuretics
• Treat UTI and chronic respiratory conditions
• Avoid constipation
• Consider HRT (topical or systemic) for oestrogen deciency
• Consider scheduled voiding if cognitive decit
• Referral— Table 13.8
Aids and appliances forincontinence E p. 426 Nocturnal enuresis inchildren E p. 893
Stressincontinence
Symptoms Small losses of urine without warning throughout the day related to coughing/ exercise
Causes Prostatectomy; childbirth; deterioration of pelvic oor muscles/ nerves
Treatment Pelvic oor exercises (E p. 821) continued >3mo help 60% (taught by physiotherapists/ continence advisors; leaets available)— may be assisted by vaginal cones and/ or electrical stimulation. Mechanical devices (e.g. Contrelle Activguard®, FemSoft®) may help
• Urgency/ dysuria/ frequency of
micturition
• Past obstetric and medical history
• Medication
• Mobility and accessibility of toilets

Symptoms Frequency, overwhelming desire to void (often precipitated
by stressful event), large loss, nocturia
Causes Idiopathic, neurological problems (stroke, MS, DM, spinal cord
injury, dementia, PD), local irritation (bladder stones, bladder cancer, infection), obstruction (BPH), surgery (TURP)
Treatment Bladder training— resist the urge to pass urine for i periods. Start with an achievable interval based on diary evidence and i slowly— continue for >6wk. If bladder training is ineective, try oxybutynin rst lineN (alternatives:solifenacin, tolterodine, trospium, duloxetine). Spontaneously remits/ relapses; reassess every 3– 4 mo.
Overow Constant dribbling loss day and night. Causes:BPH, prostate cancer,
urethral stricture, faecal impaction, neurological (LMN lesions), side eect of medication. Treatment is aimed at relieving the obstruction (E p. 428).
Urinary stula Communication between bladder and the outside—
normally through the vagina. Results in constant dribbling loss day and night. Refer to gynaecology/ urology. Causes:congenital, malignancy, complication of surgery.
Functional incontinence No urological problem. Caused by other
factors, e.g. inaccessible toilets/ immobility, behavioural problems, cognitive decit. Treat the cause.

CHAPTER13 Renal medicine and urology
Aids and appliances forincontinence
Pads Many dierent types. DNs or continence advisors are best aware
of those available via the NHS locally. They are not available on FP10 and supplied by local NHS Trusts on a ‘daily allowance’ basis. This varies across the country.
Bed covers Absorb 1– 4L of urine. Good laundry facilities are needed. If
left wet can cause skin breakdown. Available via NHS Trusts.
External catheters or sheaths Can be prescribed on NHS prescrip-
tion. Approved appliances are listed in part IXB of the UK Drug Tari. Used for men who have intractable incontinence and who are highly physically dependent, do not have urine retention, and do not require an internal catheter. Used in association with a drainage bag. Assessment and tting by a DN or continence adviser is essential.
May be non- adhesive, self- adhesive, or attached with adhesive strips. Adhesive sheaths can last several days but daily changing is recommended. Replace non- adhesive sheaths 2– 3×/ d (some are reusable).
Problems Include i susceptibility to UTI, sores on penis, and skin irritation due to the adhesive.
Catheters Can be prescribed on NHS prescription. Approved appli-
ances are listed in part IXA of the UK Drug Tari.
Indwelling catheters Only use catheters in patients who have:
• Urinary retention or neurogenic bladder dysfunction
• Severe pressure sores
• Inoperable obstructions that prevent the bladder emptying
• Terminal illness
• Housebound without adequate carer support
Types Only long- term Foley catheters are suitable for use in primary care. They last 3– 12wk.
Catheter size Unless specied a 12 or 14Ch catheter is supplied. Use the smallest diameter of catheter that drains urine eectively. Catheters >16Ch are more likely to cause bypassing of urine around the catheter and urethral strictures.
Catheter length Men require longer catheters than women. Specify ‘male’ or ‘female’ on the prescription.
Catheter balloon 10mL balloons are supplied unless specied otherwise. Pre- lled catheters contain sterile water which inates the retaining balloon with water. They are more expensive but quicker to insert and there are no costs for syringes or sterile water.
Insertion E p. 429
Drainage Usually attached to a leg bag, although catheter valves are also
available allowing the patient to use his/ her bladder as a urine reservoir. The valve must be released every 3– 4h to drain out the urine
https://t.me/med1917
AIDS AND APPLIANCES FORINCONTINENCE
Commonproblems
Leakage Check no constipation, check catheter not blocked, try smaller
gauge catheter
Infection 90% develop bacteriuria <4wk after insertion. Always conrm
suspected UTI with MSU— only treat if symptomatic or Proteus species grown. May prove dicult to eliminate. No good evidence bladder instillations help
Encrustation (50%) Deposition of minerals and other materials from the
urine onto the catheter. Worse if there is infection with Proteus species. May cause catheter blockage or pain changing the catheter. Check pH of urine regularly in patients with problems. Citric acid patency solutions may help if pH >7.4 or a daily dose of vitamin C
Inammation Results from physical presence of a catheter in the
urethra. Exacerbated by encrustation and infection. There is no easy solution— try a dierent brand catheter (e.g. hydrogel catheter rather than silicone)
Blockage Change catheter. The interval of routine changes should be
altered if there is regular blockage towards the end of the life of a catheter
Intermittent self- catheterization Patient inserts a catheter into
his/ her bladder 4– 5×/ d to drain urine. d problems of infection and blockage. Useful for neurological bladder dysfunction. Types:
• Reusable silver or stainless steel
• Reusable PVC— washed and reused for 1 wk. Usually supply 5/ mo
• Single use— need 125– 150/ mo. Expensive. Only use on
consultant advice
Collecting bags Can be prescribed on NHS prescription. Approved ap-
pliances are listed in part IXB of the UK Drug Tari.
Leg bags Drainable bags last 5– 7d. Usually 500/ 750mL. Larger capacity
bags are too heavy for mobile patients. Avariety of attachment systems are available on prescription. Long tubes are needed to wear a bag on the calf
Night drainage bags Connect to night bag attachment of day bags. Single
use, disposable non- draining bags are recommended. Bag hangers are not available on NHS prescription

CHAPTER13 Renal medicine and urology
Urinary tractobstruction
Causes of obstruction Figure 13.2. Obstruction may be unilateral
(kidney, pelvi- ureteric junction, or ureter), or bilateral (bladder, urethra, prostate). Unilateral obstruction may present late if the other kidney re­mains functioning. Suspect if loin ache worsened by drinking. Conrm with USS and refer to urology. Obstructing lesions may be in the lumen, e.g. stones; in the wall, e.g. tumours; or impinging from outside, e.g. retroperi­toneal brosis.
Acute retention of urine Sudden inability to pass urine l lower
abdominal discomfort with inability to keep still. Dierentiate from AKI.  > . Risk factors: age >70y; symptoms of prostatism/ poor urinary stream.
Causes Prostatic obstruction (82%); constipation; alcohol; drugs (anti­cholinergics, diuretics); UTI; operation (e.g. hernia repair). Rarer causes:ur­ethral stricture; clot retention; spinal cord compression; bladder stone.
Examination Abdomen— palpable bladder; DRE— enlarged ± irregular prostate; perineal sensation to exclude neurological cause.
Investigation MSU to exclude infection. Blood for U&E, Cr, and eGFR. Only investigate if catheterizing in the community.
Management Catheterize (record initial volume drained) or refer to ur­ology for catheterization— local policies vary. Treat infection. Refer to DN for instruction on management of the catheter. Refer to urology for further assessment and treatment.
Chronic retention ofurine Insidious onset. Causes:benign prostatic
hypertrophy; pelvic malignancy; CNS disease. May present as:
• Nocturnal enuresis
• Overow incontinence
Examination and investigation As for acute retention. Bladder is enlarged (may contain >1.5L) but usually non- tender.
Management Refer to urology for further assessment and treatment. Refer urgently or acutely if pain, UTI, or renal failure (eGFR <60mL/ min/
1.73m3). Do not catheterize in the community.
Retroperitoneal brosis Ureters become embedded in dense brous
plaques in the retroperitoneal space. Associations:
• Drugs, e.g. methysergide
• Carcinoma
• Crohn’s disease
Presentation and management Typically middle- aged men presenting with fever, malaise, sweating, leg oedema, i BP, palpable mass, and acute/ chronic renal failure. Refer for specialist care. Options include steroids and nephrostomies.
Horseshoe kidney Congenital abnormality. Kidneys are fused in the
midline to form a horseshoe- shaped mass. The kidney may function nor­mally or may present with obstructive nephropathy or UTIs.
• Acute on chronic retention
• Lower abdominal mass
• Connective tissue disease
• Raynaud’s syndrome

Figure13.2 Causes of urinary tract obstruction
Passing a urethral catheter 0 Technique learned through
supervised experience. Only attempt alone if you are competent to do so.
Prepare theequipmentneeded
• Sterile rubber gloves, plastic sheet to prevent spills, paper sheet to
provide sterile eld, cleansing materials— cotton swabs, cleansing uid
• Local anaesthetic/ lubricating gel, e.g. 1% lidocaine + 0.25% chlorhexidine
• Catheter— usually 12Ch or 14Ch— ensure the catheter is long if catheterizing a man (E p. 426)— and if the catheter is not pre- lled— sterile syringe + 10mL of sterile water
• Kidney dish/ other receptacle to catch the urine before connecting the drainage bag; drainage tube and bag
Inserting thecatheter
• Ensure the patient is comfortable; protect against spills with a plastic sheet; cover area with a sterile paper sheet
• Ensure strict aseptic technique. Cleanse the penis/ vulva and squeeze lubricant/ local anaesthetic gel into the urethra— allow it to work
• Gently but rmly, push the catheter into the urethra. Ensure the end of the catheter is over the receptacle. When the catheter enters the bladder, urine ows into the receptacle. Inate the balloon with sterile water (if needed) once the catheter is inside the bladder. Connect the catheter to the collecting tube and bag
• If male, pull the foreskin over the glans again to prevent paraphimosis
0 If you are unable to pass a catheter, refer to urology.

Benign prostatichypertrophy
10– 30% of men in their early 70s have symptomatic benign prostatic hyper­trophy (BPH). There is no relation between size of the prostate and symp­toms. Assessment— Table 13.9.
Symptoms ofprostatism
• Obstructive d and intermittent urinary stream, double micturition,
hesitancy, terminal dribbling, feeling of incomplete emptying, and straining to void. Dierential diagnosis:prostatic enlargement, strictures, tumours, urethral valves, bladder neck contracture
• Irritative (due to detrusor muscle hypertrophy)— urinary frequency,
urgency, dysuria and nocturia. Dierential diagnosis:enlarged prostate, UTI, polydipsia, detrusor instability, hypercalcaemia, uraemia
Complications 10% at presentation
• Recurrent UTI • Chronic obstruction— E p. 428
• Bladder stones • Overow incontinence— E p. 425
• Haematuria • Obstructive nephropathy
• Acute retention of urine ± prior obstructive symptoms— E p. 428
GP management Symptoms can improve spontaneously but overall
progress slowly. 1– 2%/ y develop urinary retention. Options: Watchful waiting Patients with mild to moderate symptoms at presenta-
tion with no complications of BPH and who are not severely troubled by their symptoms. Self- help includes:d evening uid intake, d caeine intake, bladder retraining and prevention of constipation.
Drug therapy Those with mild/ moderate symptoms who are troubled by their symptoms. Consider:
α- adrenoceptor agonists, e.g. prazosin, doxazosin— watch for postural hypotension. d symptomatic worsening
• 5α- reductase inhibitors, e.g. nasteride— best for patients with bulky prostates— takes up to 6mo to work. d risk of urinary retention
• Combination therapy— α- adrenoceptor agonist and 5α- reductase inhibitor d progression by 66%— more than either agent alone
Referral to a urologist E=Emergency admission; U=Urgent;
S=Soon; R=Routine
• Complicated BPH (e.g. acute retention)— E/ U
• Nodular/ rm prostate on DRE— U
• Failure to respond to drug therapy after 3– 12mo (α- blocker) or 6– 12 mo (5α- reductase inhibitor)— R
Bacterial prostatitis Consider in men presenting with suspected
UTI. Other features:fever; arthralgia/ myalgia; low back, perineal, penile, ± rectal pain. DRE reveals swollen, tender prostate. If suspected, check MSU and treat with paracetamol/ ibuprofen ± codeine and 4wk course of oral antibiotic which penetrates prostatic tissue, e.g. ciprooxacin 500mg bd, ooxacin 200mg bd. Refer for specialist advice if not settling. Complications include:acute retention of urine, chronic bacterial prostatitis, and prostate abscess.

BENIGN PROSTATICHYPERTROPHY
Prostate- specic antigen (PSA) testing There is no prostate
screening programme in the UK but men can request a PSA test. The Government has introduced a PSA Informed Choice Programme. Warn patients about the poor specicity of the test before performing the test and provide information about the pros and cons of testing.
In addition, PSA is routinely measured in men with urological symptoms. Abnormal PSA is a common reason for referral to an urologist. Its sensi­tivity and specicity are poor.
Pros and cons ofPSAtesting
Benets of PSA testing Downside of PSA testing
• It may provide reassurance
if the test result is normal
• It may nd cancer before
symptoms develop and at an early stage when treatments could be benecial
• If treatment is successful,
the consequences of more advanced cancer are avoided
Reasons foriPSA
• Prostate cancer
• Benign prostatic hypertrophy
• Acute or chronic prostatitis
• Physical exercise
• Acute urinary retention 0 PSA may be normal when early prostate cancer is present. Performing a PSA test Digital rectal examination may cause a transient i in
PSA levels (M), so do the PSA test before doing a digital rectal examin­ation. If that is not possible, delay the test for 1wk after the examination. Exclude urinary infection before PSA testing. Do NOT do a PSA test if the man has:
• Aproven UTI— treat the UTI and postpone the PSA test for ≥1mo
• Ejaculated within the previous 48h
• Exercised vigorously in the previous 48h
• Had a prostate biopsy <6wk ago
PSA cut os that should prompt referral
Age (y) Refer to urology if PSA (ng/ mL)
50– 59 60– 69 ≥70
0 Finasteride and dutasteride d PSA by ~50%.
• It can miss cancer, and provide false
reassurance
• It may lead to unnecessary anxiety and
medical tests when no cancer is present
• It might detect slow- growing cancer
that may never cause any symptoms or shortened lifespan
• The main treatments of prostate cancer
have signicant side eects, and there is no certainty that treatment will be successful
• Prostate instrumentation
(includes prostate biopsy and urinary catheterization)
• Old age
