A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several ways: If the bladder is neurogenic you will need to with self cath or use a Foley catheter, or,super pubic tube. If your w/c use is for leg weakness consider limiting fluid intake during the day, using bladder relaxants, or scheduled voiding times to avoid that urgent sensation.
