Antiseptic-coated Intermittent Urinary Catheter

Phase 2
Withdrawn
Conditions
Neurogenic Bladder
Catheter-Related Infections
Interventions
Device: Antiseptic-coated catheter
Device: Hydrophilic catheter
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
NameTimeMethod
Number of urinary tract infections6 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
NameTimeMethod
Safety during catheterisation6 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 reactions6 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 treatment6 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 questionnaire6 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
