English
Authors' results and conclusions: There is limited, although high quality, level of evidence (level II) currently available for the use of single and replacement urine collection pad (UCP) method and the potential for the easy adoption of the urine collection method in different clinical settings.
Authors' recommendations: The UCP will not impact significantly in terms of policy or cost burden on the Australian health system. It is therefore recommended that this technology be archived.
