- Registration Number
- NCT02697162
- Lead Sponsor
- Children's Hospital Zagreb
- Brief Summary
Study design is a prospective, randomised, double-blind, and interventional. Primary aim of the study is to investigate efficacy of antiseptic-coated intermittent hydrophilic urinary catheters in prevention and reduction of catheter-associated urinary tract infections in children with neurogenic bladder. Secondary aim is to assess feasibility of antiseptic-coated intermittent hydrophilic urinary catheters in neurogenic bladder management. Octenidine chloride will be used as antiseptic.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of urinary tract infections 6 months after start of intervention Urinary tract infection is diagnosed when both urinalysis results disclose pyuria and/or bacteriuria and the presence of at least 1000 colony-forming units per mL of a uropathogen cultured from a urine specimen obtained through catheterization
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Safety during catheterisation 6 months after start of intervention Discomfort during catheterisation will be measured by subjective evaluation on a 10-cm visual analogue scale (VAS), where 0 is 'no discomfort' and 10 is 'worst discomfort imaginable'. Pain, stinging, or resistance will be measured on a four-point scale (for example for pain: 1=no pain; 4=severe pain).
Adverse reactions 6 months after start of intervention Adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs will be recorded by the investigator. The presence of visible bleeding will reported by the participants.
Expenses of infection-associated treatment 6 months after start of intervention Total expenses in diagnostics and treatment of urinary tract infections
Improvement in health-related quality of life measured by PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core questionnaire 6 months after start of intervention Improvement is defined by increase in total and subscale scores by more than defined minimally clinical important difference for PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core questionnaire
