The Urology Care Foundation, the official Foundation of the American Urological Association (AUA), is utilizing the month of November to address the stigma surrounding bladder health issues. Our goal is to provide resources that raise awareness and facilitate conversations between patients and their healthcare providers. In support of Bladder Health Awareness Month 2024, this edition of the Guidelines Rundown focuses on bladder health.
This article will spotlight the clinical practice guidelines that pertain to non-cancer bladder health.
