Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this trial is to make a comparison between the use of antiseptic silver alloy-coated silicone urinary catheters and the use of conventional silicone urinary catheters in spinal cord injured patients to prevent urinary infections.


Clinical Trial Description

Antiseptic Silver Alloy-Coated Silicone Urinary Catheters seems to be a promising intervention to reduce urinary tract infections; however, research evidence cannot be extrapolated to spinal cord injured patients.

The study is an open, randomized, multicentric, and parallel clinical trial with blinded assessment. The study includes spinal cord injured patients who require at least seven days of urethral catheterization as a method of bladder voiding. Participants are on-line centrally randomized and allocated to one of the two interventions (Antiseptic Urinary Catheters or Conventional Catheters). Catheters are used for a maximum period of 30 days or removed earlier at the clinician criteria.

The main outcome is the incidence of urinary tract infections by the time of catheter removal or at day 30 after catheterization, the event that occurs first. Intention-to-treat analysis will be performed, as well as a primary analysis of all patients.

The aim of this study is to assess whether silver alloy-coated silicone urinary catheters reduce urinary infections in spinal cord injured patients. ;
