Bladder scanners are commonly used to estimate post-void residual and support clinical decision-making with a simple ultrasound-based approach that can be performed in minutes. This matters because reducing unnecessary catheterization is a widely recognized infection-prevention goal, and bladder scanners are often used as a “check first” step when urinary retention is suspected.

Quick Product List: Our Bladder Scanner Lineup

• Infinium Vioscan Bladder Scanner
• Verathon BladderScan BVI 9600
• Verathon BladderScan BVI 9400
• Verathon BVM 9500 BladderScan
• Roll Stand for Infinium Vioscan Bladder Scanner

Why We Recommend Bladder Scanners for Urinary Retention & Post-Void Residual Workflows

A portable bladder scanner uses ultrasound to estimate bladder urine volume (often as part of post-void residual assessment). In many care settings, that speed and convenience can support faster decisions, reduce avoidable straight caths, and improve patient comfort—especially when the goal is to confirm whether bladder volume is actually the issue before moving to more invasive steps.

From an infection-prevention standpoint, urinary catheters are strongly associated with catheter-associated urinary tract infections, so minimizing catheter use when it isn’t needed is a key part of CAUTI prevention. In practice, a bladder scanner can be one of the most practical tools for “verify first” protocols.

FAQ: Bladder Scanners

What does a bladder scanner do?

A bladder scanner uses ultrasound to estimate bladder urine volume, commonly as part of post-void residual assessment. It’s a quick, non-invasive approach that can often be performed in just a few minutes at the bedside.

Why use a bladder scanner before catheterization?

Bladder scanners are commonly used to assess and confirm suspected urinary retention before placing a catheter, helping reduce unnecessary catheterization when bladder volume isn’t the cause of symptoms.

How do bladder scanners support CAUTI reduction efforts?

Because urinary catheters are strongly associated with catheter-related infections, many prevention strategies emphasize using catheters only when necessary and removing them as soon as possible. Bladder scanners support this goal by helping teams confirm urinary retention and make more informed decisions before catheter placement.

How Does a Bladder Scanner Work?

Bladder scanners transmit ultrasound waves through the lower abdomen. These waves reflect off the bladder, and the device calculates the organ’s volume based on the echoes. The process takes seconds, requires no specialized training, and delivers results on a built-in screen or printed report.

Key Uses of Bladder Scanners

1. Urinary Retention Detection: Identify incomplete bladder emptying without catheterization.
2. Post-Operative Care: Monitor bladder recovery after surgery.
3. UTI Prevention: Reduce catheter-associated infections (CAUTIs) by minimizing unnecessary catheter use.
4. Pediatric & Geriatric Care: Safely assess bladder volume in sensitive populations.
5. Chronic Condition Management: Track bladder function in patients with neurological disorders or prostate issues.

Who Uses Bladder Scanners?

• Nurses: Bedside assessments in hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics.
• Urologists: Evaluate bladder outlet obstruction or urinary dysfunction.
• Emergency Departments: Rapid triage for abdominal pain or urinary issues.
• Long-Term Care Facilities: Routine monitoring for elderly residents.
