Clinical Trial Summary

recurrent symptomatic urinary tracts infections (UTI) in persons with spinal cord injury are a frequent problem, leading to significant morbidity and to a decreased quality of life. - until today, there is no effective prophylaxis for UTI for patients with spinal cord injury. - homeopathy has been shown to be an effective treatment option in several chronic diseases - study hypothesis: the addition of homeopathic assessment and treatment to a standard prevention strategy for recurrent UTI will significantly reduce the number of symptomatic UTI per year in this group of patients compared to standard prevention alone
