The aim of this paper is to evaluate the efficacy of absorbent textiles for incontinence (ATI) in managing post-voiding dribble (PVD) in older men. In this systematic review, a literature search was conducted to identify relevant studies using PubMed, Science Direct, and Cochrane Library databases from 2010 to 2020. The search included clinical trials and studies that evaluated the use of disposable or reusable ATI in managing PVD or urinary incontinence in older men. The quality assessment was done using Joanna Brigg's randomized controlled trial inventory method. Data was extracted from those studies meeting the quality criteria for meta-analysis. A total of 352 articles were found in the initial database search and an additional 18 articles were selected through a hand search based on the inclusion criteria. After the assessment, only two studies meeting the quality criteria were included in the data extraction. The results of the meta-analysis showed that ATI improved the psychological and physical aspects of quality of life, while urisheaths reduced the daily consumption and number of leaks of incontinence. In connection with ATI, disposable underpads can significantly lower the development of hospital acquired pressure injuries and hospital length of stay, while disposable or reusable underpads had no significant influence on the development of incontinence-associated dermatitis.
