ABSTRACT
Objective: to understand the feelings experienced by family members caring for children with neurogenic bladder dependent on catheterization. Method: qualitative study of 12 family members at a university hospital pediatric clinic. Thematic content analysis was used. Results: three analytical categories emerged: fears in caring for children dependent on catheterization; denial of the new situation; and concern for the children’s future health. The research thus shows how complex the process of caring for the family is, because it comprises not only technical aspects, but all their emotional involvement in the new care situation. Conclusion: it is essential to recognize and understand the fears and difficulties of families caring for children with neurogenic bladder, and to accept their weaknesses and difficulties.
