Clinical Interest of the Temporary Urethral Stent Allium " Bulbar Urethral Stent " in the Treatment of Detrusor Sphincter Dyssynergia

Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Detrusor Striated Sphincter Dyssynergia (DSSD)
• Interventions: Device: Allium " Bulbar Urethral Stent " (BUS) system

• Registration Number: NCT02323243
• Lead Sponsor: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Brief Summary

Detrusor striated sphincter dyssynergia (DSSD) is defined as the persistence or increasing of the striated sphincter activity during voiding and characterizes the spinal cord injuries located under the protuberance. The standard treatment for DSSD is medical, either pharmacological or by clean intermittent self-catheterisation (CISC). Some patients are unable to perform CISC and require alternative surgical techniques such as external sphincterotomy which is invasive, irreversible and with no adjustment period for the patient.

Urethral stents have been developed as an alternative to surgical sphincterotomy. Temporary stents provide a non-definitive treatment, especially for evolutionary pathologies, for patients refusing a destructive surgery (psychosocial impact), or for patients having not defined yet their therapeutic preference. The Allium company has developed the " Bulbar Urethral Stent " (BUS) system, which advantages are the possibility to perform the procedure under local anesthesia and to remove more easily the stent, with similar performances compared to the other devices. In order to quantify the interest of the BUS system, the investigators propose to perform a prospective study aimed at describing its technical and clinical results in terms of efficacy and safety.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Allium BUS	Allium " Bulbar Urethral Stent " (BUS) system	Temporary urethral stent

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Percentage of patients who perceive their voiding condition improved or very improved	One month after the surgical intervention	The perception of voiding condition by the patient will be measured with a 5-point Likert Scale. The patient will have to define the voiding condition compared to the initial (pre-procedure), as: very worse, worse, non-changed, improved, or very improved

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Number of stent removals performed without hemorrhage	12 months after the surgical intervention
Number of patients requesting a change in the voiding method, i.e. premature removal of the stent	Up to 12 months following the surgical intervention
Number of complications, i.e. symptomatic urinary tract infections, encrustations, stenosis and hematuria, need for re-intervention and removals of the stent	Up to 12 months after the surgical intervention
Number of stents correctly positioned	Immediately after the surgical intervention
Maximum detrusor pressure and maximum urethral closure pressure, measured during the urodynamic testing	At inclusion, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after the surgical intervention
QUALIVEEN short form score (approved in French)	At inclusion and 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after the surgical intervention
Number of stent migrations	1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after the surgical intervention
Post-void residual volume measured by retrograde urinary urethrocystography	At inclusion and 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after the surgical intervention
