ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how a special lying position called the modified supine position can help people urinate better after a heart procedure known as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Sometimes, after this procedure, patients have trouble urinating, which can lead to discomfort and longer hospital stays. The researchers want to see if lying in this specific position can improve urine output and prevent issues like urinary retention.

To participate in this study, individuals must be adults diagnosed with cardiovascular disease who are having PCI. They should be able to communicate and express their need to urinate without any major health issues affecting their ability to do so. Participants will not be included if they have certain conditions, such as urinary tract infections or problems with their prostate. This trial is important because it aims to find a way to make recovery more comfortable and effective for patients undergoing heart procedures. If you qualify and choose to participate, you can expect to be monitored closely for your urinary health in this new position after your procedure.
