What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Trial Objectives: This clinical trial aims to explore whether ultrasound - guided urethral balloon dilation can effectively improve the micturition function of patients with urinary retention after spinal cord injury, and to evaluate the safety of this treatment method. The main questions it attempts to answer are: Can ultrasound - guided urethral balloon dilation reduce the residual urine volume and improve the quality of life of patients with urinary retention after spinal cord injury? Trial Design: Researchers will compare the group receiving ultrasound - guided urethral balloon dilation combined with conventional rehabilitation therapy (the experimental group) with the group receiving only conventional rehabilitation therapy (the control group) to determine the therapeutic effect of ultrasound - guided urethral balloon dilation on urinary retention after spinal cord injury.
