A Pilot Study To Assess The Impact Of A Camstent Coated Catheter On Clinical Bacteriuria
- Conditions
- Bacteriuria
- Interventions
- Device: Standard CareDevice: Camstent Coated Catheter
- Registration Number
- NCT04658719
- Lead Sponsor
- Camstent Ltd.
- Brief Summary
A Pilot Study To Assess The Impact Of A Camstent Coated Catheter On Clinical Bacteriuria when compared to an uncoated catheter.
Each participant will take part in the trial from the time the participant signs the informed consent form (ICF).
After the screening visit, the participants will be allocated to either a coated catheter or an uncoated catheter. Participants will be assigned to receive trial treatment until the catheter has been removed, investigator's decision to withdraw the subject, noncompliance with trial treatment or procedures, unacceptable adverse event, or participant withdraws consent.
During the trial urine samples will be taken form the catheter port, temperature will be taken, and participants and healthcare providers will be asked to complete questionnaires.

Group Intervention Description Standard Care Standard Care Foley catheter, uncoated Camstent Coated Catheter Camstent Coated Catheter The patented 'M4D coating' is applied to inner and outer surfaces using a 'dip/dry' process before sterilisation, creating a safe, inert, and long-lasting finish. The coating reduces friction of the catheter surface, enhancing patient comfort on insertion and withdrawal. It also incorporates the materials which virtually preclude biofilm formation. The coating doesn't elute antibacterial agents or toxins, avoiding the build-up of dead bacteria on the device surface and retaining effectiveness throughout extended use (NB. Effectiveness is not lost because of leaching away of an active antimicrobial agent). Finally, the absence of anti-bacterial moieties means that the healthy microbial flora is not disturbed.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The primary efficacy endpoint is a decrease in the number of days in which bacterial concentrations are greater than 105 CFU/mL in coated catheters, as compared to uncoated control catheters 1 Year
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method • Reduction in site infection 1 Year • Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO) 1 Year • Reduction in the number of cases experiencing Symptomatic Bacteriuria (CAUTI) coated catheters vs. uncoated controls 1 Year • Reduction of number of cases experiencing blockage in coated catheters vs. uncoated controls 1 Year • Reduction in Biofilm 1 Year • Reduction in the number of cases receiving prophylactic or therapeutic Antibiotics during catheter use in coated catheters vs. uncoated controls 1 Year
