简要总结
The purpose of the current study is to investigate whether catheter flushing with Uro-Tainer® with citric acid and Uro-Tainer® Polihexanide can: Reduce catheter changes due to incrustation and blockage.
In addition, a list of secondary aims inclusive of cost-effectiveness analysis in collaboration with the Centre for Innovative Medical Technology (CIMT) at OUH.
详细描述
The purpose of the current study is to investigate whether catheter flushing with Uro-Tainer® with citric acid and Uro-Tainer® Polihexanide can: Reduce catheter changes due to incrustation and blockage.
In addition, a list of secondary aims inclusive of cost-effectiveness analysis in collaboration with the Centre for Innovative Medical Technology (CIMT) at OUH.
There is a need for a randomised study to justify if Uro-Tainer® flushing will have an advantage over the cheaper and normally used Saline flushing.
Standard therapies vary depending on the blockage type and severity. Saline Solution can be used daily for a shorter period and 1-2 times a week for long-term catheter maintenance.
