Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The primary outcome is the extent to which interventions supporting independent voiding were implemented, assessed through documentation of the following components: 1.Identification of the need for support for independent voiding 2.Implementation of a 24-hour voiding diary and/or measurement of post-voidresidual urine volume 3.Documentation of voiding independence level and lower urinary tract functionassessment items 4.Development of a comprehensive voiding care plan, including environmentalmodifications, posture optimization, and use of assistive devices 5.Implementation of specific interventions targeting lower urinary tract function,such as bladder training or intermittent catheterization Each component will be scored on a 3-point scale (0-2 points) based on the presence and completeness of documentation.	—
