Children Clinical Trial
Official title:
Are Stimulated Clean-Catch Urine Collection Techniques More Successful When Combined With Prior Emergency Point-of-care Ultrasound in Paediatric Patients?
Background:
The investigators recently evaluated a new bladder stimulation technique to obtain
clean-catch urine in infants aged less than six months. In this study, the reported success
rate was of 52%. Measuring the transversal bladder diameter prior to the procedure with
emergency point-of-care ultrasound (ePOCUS) could likely increase success rates for this
technique as it has been described for bladder scans prior to performing urethral
catheterization.
Objective:
The aim of this study is to evaluate if using emergency point-of-care ultrasound to measure
bladder volume improves clean-catch urine collection success in patients less than 6 months
of age when compared to children undergoing this technique without a prior ultrasound.
Methods:
This will be a randomized controlled trial performed in a tertiary paediatric emergency
department. Participants will include all infants younger than 6 months of age who need a
urinary culture and/or analysis requested by the attending physician. The intervention will
consist of the use of emergency point-of-care ultrasound by a trained research assistant. The
primary outcome will be the rate of success of the procedure. Secondary objectives will be to
evaluate time to collect urine samples and to determine which transversal bladder diameter
correlates with more than a 90% success rate for the procedure. Independent variables will be
sex and age. In both groups, trained research nurses will collect clean-catch urine samples
using bladder stimulation techniques. The success rate of the CCU procedure in both groups
will be calculated. The time required to collect urine samples will be analysed. In group 1,
the investigators will determine the transversal bladder diameter corresponding to a success
rate for the procedure of > 80%. It is estimated that, in the worse-case scenario, the
evaluation of 200 participants will provide a 95% confidence interval smaller than 10% for
proportions. In addition, 20 participants with a successful CCU sample would allow to
evaluate 2 risk factors using univariate and multivariate analysis.
Expected results:
This study will demonstrate that use of emergency point-of-care ultrasound increases success
rates of stimulated clean-catch manoeuvres and may avoid invasive urethral catheterizations
in young children.
