Evaluation Patient Satisfaction After Passive Bladder Catheter Removal Compared to Active Removal

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Urologic Diseases
Interventions
Procedure: Passive indwelling urinary catheter removal
Procedure: Active indwelling catheter removal by a nurse
Registration Number
NCT05313945
Lead Sponsor
Hospices Civils de Lyon
Brief Summary

In usual practice, the removal of the bladder catheter is performed by a nurse a few days after the surgery. The nurse deflates the balloon and removes the catheter from the urethra by manual traction. To date, there are no solid data on the impact of passive catheter removal on patient satisfaction.

It is therefore necessary to estimate the effect on patient satisfaction of active catheter removal by a nurse versus passive catheter removal under gravity. The effect on pain and anxiety will also be compared between the two techniques. The methodology used was that of an open-label randomized controlled trial.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Patient satisfaction scoreWithin one hour after indwelling urinary catheter removal at day 0

Patient satisfaction score using a numerical rating scale (NRS) from the minimum value 0 (The worse score) to the maximum value 10 (The better Score)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Patient satisfactionat Day 2, at Day 15

Patient satisfaction score using a numerical rating scale (NRS) from the minimum value 0 (The worse score) to the maximum value 10 (The better Score)

The pain experienced by patientsPrior to catheter removal (within 30 minutes before the start of the procedure) and in the immediate aftermath (within one hour after the removal of the catheter)

The pain experienced by patients will be measured using a numerical scale (EN) ranging from the minimum value 0 (The better score) to the maximum value 10 (The worse Score)

The anxiety experienced by patientsPrior to catheter removal (within 30 minutes before the start of the procedure) and in the immediate aftermath (within one hour after the removal of the catheter)

The anxiety experienced by patients will be measured using a numerical scale (EN) ranging from the minimum value 0 (The better score) to the maximum value 10 (The worse Score)
