| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to find a suitable method to measure style dependence of the comfortable urination towards the better nursing intervention. We used the ultrasound instrument since it is available not only for infectionless and painless but also for no harm mentally. We described our technique to measure the urine volume and showed that the ultrasound instrument is useful to it. As the trial experiment for six healthy female in the five positions (0, 30, 45, 60, 90) on a bed the residual urine volume was measured. Their impressions were also recorded. Obtained results are the followings:
1. In semi-fawler's positions from 0 to 30 there remains residual urine.
2. In 90 position there causes pains in the thigh and the hip by touching a chamber pot, and it is tiring to hold up the upper part of the body.
3. The semi-fawler's positions from 45 to 60 are efficient for the urination on a bed.
Furthermore we showed the usefulness of the portable ultrasound device (bladder scan) in the dysuria nursing.
