Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
1. To evaluate the incidence of urinary tract symptoms and postoperative urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women with and without perioperative urinary catheterization. 2. To evaluate the incidence of microscopic hematuria in women with and without perioperative urinary catheterization. Timepoint: 1. Baseline (preoperatively) 2. Within 48 hours postoperatively 3. Within 7 days postoperatively.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. To assess the rate of postoperative urinary retention and need of urinary re-catheterisation in both groups. 2. To compare the length of hospital stay among two groups. 3. To compare the incidence of bladder injury among two groups. Timepoint: 1. Postoperatively upto 48 hours 2. From 48 hours to 7 days after surgery	—
