Clean intermittent catheterization is the most effective and safe method that has been used for nearly 50 years to drain urine from the bladder in patients with both neurogenic and non-neurogenic bladder disorders. As a result of the studies, the use of CIC; It has been determined that it increases the quality of life, body image, and self-confidence development of the patients, protects the organs that make up the urinary system, and reduces the morbidity and mortality rate. Caregivers who apply to CIC their children need to receive health education in line with standard guidelines and protocols created by nurses and adapt to this new process they live in. It has been determined that the rate of making mistakes increases in cases where caregivers do not receive adequate training and are not adequately adapted to the application of CIC. Thus, the incidence of complications that may result in organ failure, such as urinary tract infection, increases. In our country, there are no standard guides and protocols created for both the health personnel who give training on CIC practice for caregivers and the caregivers who will receive this training. For this reason, standard protocols and guidelines to be used throughout the country should be established in order to prevent complications that may arise from the use of CIC.
