Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To determine the efficacy of prophylactic antibiotic use prior to cystoscopy in outpatients in decreasing the incidence of postprocedure urinary tract infection.<br>Urinary tract infection will be assessed by clinical assessment (asking for lower urinary tract symptoms) and by urine culture taking 3 -5 days after cystoscopy, both of them positive. It will be assessed as a categorical variable yes or no (positive or negative).[Maximum ten days after randomization. <br>While reviewing literature we found that outcomes were assessed during these first ten days, it?s arbitrary but after this day one can find that any etiology other than the procedure can cause a urinary tract infection.]
