To understand how contemporary best practice is described and the nature of interventions prescribed for managing this issue, this article reviews the content of 16 seminal palliative care textbooks and 10 journal articles (retrieved through systematic search techniques) that discuss the management of urinary incontinence for patients at the end of life. The findings depict an area of nursing that has been governed by \u2018common sense\u2019 and precedent rather than evidence-based research, particularly regarding the use of indwelling urinary catheters. There is very little robust research evidence on this topic. Further research is required to ascertain the current state of practice in settings where patients who are approaching the end of life are cared for and the needs and preferences of patients and families. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.12968\/ijpn.2013.19.9.449","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,23]],"date-time":"2014-05-23T16:36:44Z","timestamp":1400863004000},"page":"449-456","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Managing urinary incontinence at the end of life: an examination of the evidence that informs practice"],"prefix":"10.12968","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Naomi","family":"Farrington","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Southampton and University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust, Southampton General Hospital, Mailpoint 11, Clinical Academic Facility, South Academic Block, Tremona Road, Southampton, SO16 6YD"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mandy","family":"Fader","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"of Continence Technology, University of Southampton"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alison","family":"Richardson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"of Cancer Nursing and End of Life Care, University of Southampton and University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"5130","reference":[{"key":"B1","first-page":"CD001842","volume":"3","author":"Alhasso A","year":"2005","journal-title":"Cochrane Database Syst Rev"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11255-006-9157-7"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7257\/1053-816X.2011.31.3.169"},{"key":"B5","volume-title":"Fundamental Aspects of Palliative Care Nursing: An Evidence-Based Handbook for Nursing Students","author":"Becker R","year":"2010","edition":"2"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9781118704707"},{"key":"B7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00012272-197810000-00004"},{"key":"B8","first-page":"33","volume-title":"Principles and Practice of Research in Midwifery","author":"Cluett E","year":"2006"},{"key":"B9","volume-title":"Essence of Care: Benchmarks for Bladder, Bowel and Continence Care","author":"Department of Health","year":"2010"},{"key":"B10","volume-title":"Care of the Dying: A Pathway to Excellence","author":"Ellershaw J","year":"2011","edition":"2"},{"key":"B11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B978-141602597-9.10001-8"},{"key":"B12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2702.2003.00662.x"},{"key":"B13","first-page":"CD007408","volume":"4","author":"Fader M","year":"2008","journal-title":"Cochrane Database Syst Rev"},{"key":"B14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0885-3924(91)90045-6"},{"key":"B15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0885-3924(92)90085-V"},{"key":"B16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9780470755877"},{"key":"B17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1472-684X-1-5"},{"key":"B18","volume-title":"Approaching Death: Improving Care at the End of Life","author":"Field MJ","year":"1997"},{"key":"B19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cger.2004.04.002"},{"key":"B20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12968\/ijpn.2004.10.11.17131"},{"key":"B21","first-page":"33","volume-title":"Care of the Dying: A Pathway to Excellence","author":"Glare P","year":"2011","edition":"2"},{"key":"B22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1191\/026921600677940614"},{"issue":"29","key":"B23","first-page":"31","volume":"105","author":"Harris A","year":"2009","journal-title":"Nurs Times"},{"key":"B24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9781444315271"},{"key":"B25","volume-title":"Terminal Illness: A Guide to Nursing Care","author":"Kemp C","year":"1999","edition":"2"},{"key":"B26","volume-title":"Palliative Nursing: Improving End-of-Life Care","author":"Kinghorn S","year":"2007","edition":"2"},{"key":"B27","volume-title":"End-of-Life Care: A Practical Guide","author":"Kinzbrunner BM","year":"2011","edition":"2"},{"key":"B28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12968\/bjon.2010.19.7.47430"},{"key":"B29","volume-title":"The Dying Process: Patients\u2019 Experience of Palliative Care","author":"Lawton J","year":"2000"},{"key":"B30","volume-title":"Palliative Care: The Nursing Role","author":"Lugton J","year":"2005","edition":"2"},{"key":"B31","volume-title":"The Liverpool Care Pathway for the Dying Patient (LCP) Core Documentation, Version 12","author":"Marie Curie Palliative Care Institute Liverpool","year":"2009"},{"key":"B32","volume-title":"Urinary Incontinence: The Management of Urinary Incontinence in Women.
