Filter by:Investigation of novel swelling media for CE marked intermittent urinary catheters. The study was a randomized, single blinded, cross-over investigation comparing a novel swelling media with a comparator swelling media in 22 adult, healthy, male volunteers.
Primary objective of the study is to establish the incidence of all any catheter related complications in BIP CVC and standard CVC groups in patients requiring CVC. (CVC - Central Venous Catheter; BIP - Bactiguard Infection Protection)
Catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) is not uncommon in male patients under general anesthesia, and it may cause patient agitation and exacerbated postoperative pain. In this study, the investigators will enroll male patients undergoing elective colonal and rectal surgery with surgical duration of at least 2 h, requiring catheterization of the urinary bladder with urinary catheterization after anesthetic induction, and compare preoperative education with image illustrations combined with local tetracaine mucilage vs. local tetracaine mucilage alone in alleviating CRBD during the post-operative period.
Urinary [Foley] catheters [tubes] are commonly placed in patients undergoing surgery; approximately 25% of surgical patients will receive one. Among patients who receive urinary catheters, discomfort associated with the Foley catheter is common; between 47-90% of patients experience catheter related bladder discomfort [CRBD]. Presence of a foreign object in the bladder even for short periods of time may result in symptoms such as a burning sensation, pain in the lower abdomen, muscle spasms and a sense of urgency to urinate. There is some evidence that suggests that hospital-acquired urinary tract infections are directly related to catheter placement, which causes mechanical damage and local inflammation to the urethra and the bladder. Based on research conducted on a similar mechanism where an airway tube is inserted into a patients throat for delivery of general anesthesia - we hypothesize that CRBD is related to injury and inflammation caused by the catheter placement and that this occurs in a sterile environment.
A randomized clinical trial to test the efficacy of EMLA cream (lidocaine 2.5% and prilocaine 2.5% in a ratio of 1:1 by weight) in comparison to the established local anesthesia (LA) protocol of lidocaine subcutaneous injection, in providing adequate peri-operative local anesthesia during transradial coronary angiography.
Catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) is not uncommon in male patients under general anesthesia, and it may cause patient agitation and exacerbated postoperative pain. In this study, the investigators will enroll male patients undergoing elective prostate surgery with urinary catheterization after anesthetic induction, and compare the efficacy of pudendal nerve block (PNB) and intravenous tramadol in prevention of CRBD.
The investigators want to evaluate the efficacy of the propofol and sevoflurane for the prevention of catheter-related bladder discomfort.
We want to evaluate the efficacy of the glycopyrrolate and atropine for the prevention of catheter-related bladder discomfort.
We want to evaluate the efficacy of the sevoflurane and desflurane for the prevention of catheter-related bladder discomfort.
