Aim: The aim of this observational cohort study was to measure the prevalence of UR in patients aged ≥75 years on admission to an acute geriatric hospitalisation unit and to determine which at risk group would benefit from screening. Methods: Post-void residual volumes (PVR) were measured within 3 days of admission with an ultrasound bladder scan. Uni- and multivariable analysis were used to determine risk factors associated with PVR ≥150 and ≥300 millilitres.
