Filter by:This is a single-center randomized controlled trial in comparison of Parylene-Coated versus Silicone Catheters in the Prevention of Urinary Tract Infections and Crystallization.
CRBD is related to different degrees of irritation caused by the volume of the balloon in the urinary catheter, and when CRBD occurs, it may cause severe postoperative pain and trauma by self-removal of the catheter, further leading complications. Although many drugs can improve CRBD, measures that can be immediately intervened by non-nursing staff at any time and even have different side effects on patients due to drug use.Therefore, the author wants to use this study to explore the reduction of catheter balloon volume can effectively reduce the degree of CRBD, is a non-invasive and immediately executable nursing treatment.the quality of clinical care and hospitalization of the patient can be further improved, reducing the patient's inappropriate, thereby improving the quality of medical care.
Serenno Medical Automatic Urine Output measuring device is intended to measure volumetric flow rate (total volume and rate) of urine produced per minute over long periods by a patient with a urinary catheter as well as high resolution IAP via bladder pressure (IBP). The device comprises a control unit located near the bed, and a disposable unit connected between the catheter and the urine collection tube/bag. The disposable unit is connected to the control unit with a tube. Frequent and accurate Intra-Abdominal Pressure measurements facilitate management of critical care patients, yet this parameter is normally measured manually, intermittently, and inaccurately. Automating IAP measurement will increase responsiveness, reduce workload, and potentially improve outcomes. The investigators goal is to validate the accuracy urinary catheter estimates of IAP compared to the gold standard during the application of a wide range of pressures controlled by a validated closed-loop insufflation reference. Primary Objective: The study objective is to evaluate the accuracy of the Serenno Medical IAP measurements in patients with indwelling urinary catheters vs. the gold standard - the Foley Manometer
The purpose of this study is to compare frequency of UTI, urine leak and need for reoperation in patients after renal transplant with early or delayed Foley catheter removal. The hypothesis of the ELUCATR trial is that there is no need to keep Foley catheter longer than 24 hours after kidney transplant due to lack of significant effect on urological complications (urine leak, ureter strictures). Early removal can also reduce urinary tract infections. Main advantage of urinary catheter placement is continual diuresis monitoring and lower bladder pressure. Some hypothesize that increased pressure can disrupt ureteroneocystostomy with resultant urinary fistula. Clinical practice is to remove the catheter between 1-10 post-transplant day. Only few studies described removal of Foley catheter in the first 48 hours. There is no level 1 evidence for timing of urinary catheter removal after kidney transplantation. Urinary tract infection is a common complication after KTx occurring in about 7-80% patients. Studies suggest direct negative effect of UTI on long-term renal allograft function. There are several independent risk factors for developing UTI: female sex, diabetes and obesity. Duration of catheterization is a modifiable risk factor. Urine leak and ureter stenosis are relatively frequent surgical complications of kidney transplantation. Urine leaks occur in 2-9% of all kidney transplants. Most of them happen within 3 months after surgery. Urinary fistula contributes to mortality and graft loss. Majority of them need intervention with nephrostomy, pigtail ureteral stent or surgery. Anastomotic or ureter stenosis occurs in 3.1% of all kidney transplants and is usually resolved with open ureteroneocystostomy. Diagnosed and treated early, it does not affect patient and graft survival. There are no solid data documenting influence of the urinary bladder catheterization on fistulas, urinomas, ureter strictures and need for reoperation in this set of patients. European Best Renal Practice Guidelines recommend removal of the catheter as early as possible, however a randomized trial on timing and adverse event rates (urinary tract infection, urinary leakage) is needed.
The aim of this study was to investigate whether urinary catheterization could be avoided for all patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty under combined spinal-epidural analgesia plus multi-site infiltration analgesia.
The aim of this study is to determine if the Sharklet catheter, with its unique coating, reduces infections in participants, when compared to a standard catheter.
The objective this trial is to compare immediate and 12 hours postoperative removal of urinary catheter after elective cesarean section; and whether early removal is associated with lower risk of urinary infection compared with delayed catheter removal.
