Nursing care recommendations after placing a suprapubic catheter remain inconsistent, partly because many resources do not differentiate between indwelling urinary catheters and indwelling suprapubic catheters. This is further complicated by a lack of standardized training and variations in the nationwide guidance offered by nurse practice acts. This white paper provides recommendations based on expert opinion and the scarce evidence relative to suprapubic catheter care after the initial post-insertion change.
