United States205 participantsStarted 2022-12-05

Plain-language summary

Patients who are undergoing non-urogynecologic, minimally invasive (laparoscopic, robotic) hysterectomy who are discharged the day of surgery will be randomized to a strict need to void versus no need to void prior to discharge. To determine if a strict versus liberal voiding trial following the aforementioned surgery in same day discharge patients increases rates of post-operative urinary retention, urinary tract infection (UTI), or re-presentation and if there is a difference in Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) time and costs.
