This EAUN edition of EAU Podcasts presents the latest update of the intravesical instillation guidelines, featuring insights from experts Bente Thoft Jensen RN, PhD, Susanne Vahr Lauridsen RN, PhD, and Lisbeth Leinum RN, PhD.

They discuss the key recommendations and changes since the previous version, as well as the impact on clinical practice, and how nurses and patients benefit from the guidelines. 

They also outline the evidence-based development process of the guidelines and highlight the focus on nurse and patient safety, education, risk stratification and management of complications. The speakers emphasise growing evidence on managing side effects and the increasing attention to patient perspectives and quality of life.

A key message is the importance of improving patient adherence and ensuring nurses understand the differences between BCG and Mitomycin to maintain safety.
