Summary

This study looks at urinary problems in people recovering from a stroke. Researchers compare patients with and without bladder issues and test two simple behavioral approaches: for those with thinking difficulties, training to go to the toilet immediately when they feel the urge; for those with normal thinking, scheduled bathroom visits every 2-3 hours. The goal is to see if these methods improve continence and reduce related complications like infections or falls.
