Abstract
External urine management devices were introduced into healthcare as a novel solution to avoid indwelling urinary catheter placement and the associated urinary tract infection risk for adult patients. These devices are favored among healthcare workers and patients. However, the downstream impacts of this device can be detrimental to patient outcomes when immobility is promoted through their use. Clinical nurse specialists are the ideal team member to evaluate the introduction of new technology to promote patient-focused care over task-focused care.
