Filter by:The Flume catheter is a commercially available (FDA 510(k) cleared) urethral catheter with an innovative catheter design. The traditional Foley catheter design includes a protruding tip with drainage holes. The protruding tip may contribute to patient discomfort, pain and bladder spasms. The Flume catheter is designed such that the balloon envelops the tip on inflation, thus eliminating the protruding catheter tip, while the drainage holes are inset low in the balloon, providing protection to the bladder lining. Based on the change in design, the hypothesis of this observational cohort study is the Flume catheter will have better patient comfort scores (using validated patient reported outcomes measures) when compared to a traditional catheter.
The Investigators will study a device for men in urinary retention secondary to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, BPH ,who are catheter dependent or who have a Post Void Residual > 350cc. The hypothesis is that the device will allow these participants to return to volitional voiding with a Post Void Residual <75 cc.
The Investigator will perform a single-institution randomized double-blinded controlled trial comparing intraoperative Sugammadex vs. standard dose of glycopyrrolate/neostigmine combination for participants undergoing a total vaginal hysterectomy with or without pelvic organ prolapse procedures under general endotracheal anesthesia.
This is a feasibility study looking at whether the use of Tamsulosin could lower the high incidence of postoperative urinary retention (POUR) in older men who undergo an oncological thoracic surgical procedure for suspected or confirmed cancer. In addition, the study will try to identify the time of resumption of presurgical urinary function post Tamsulosin administration.
General anesthesia, thoracic epidural, and morphine inhibit the urination process and promote postoperative Acute Urinary Retention (AUR) after thoracic surgery. Indwelling bladder catheterization prevents this risk, but is associated with other complications (urinary tract infection, delayed mobilization). With the rise of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols, bladder catheterization is being questioned. The current protocol in the department is to catheterize only patients with a high bladder volume in the post anesthesia care unit (defined as a bladder volume > 400 ml on bladder scan). Preliminary results from the "AirLeaks" study show a high rate of early postoperative AUR (approximately 50%). The investigators believe that a "systematic intermittent catheterization" (SIC) strategy is superior to the current "bladder scan-guided catheterization in the post anesthesia care unit" (BSGC) strategy in preventing the risk of postoperative AUR. To their knowledge, no study has compared these two bladder catheterization strategies in a thoracic accelerated rehabilitation protocol.
The investigators propose a randomized trial comparing sugammadex and neostigmine for the reversal of neuromuscular blocks induced by rocuronium or vecuronium in adults having general anesthesia with muscular block for noncardiac surgery.
Patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The control group received routine postoperative treatment, while the experimental group took donepezil 5mg orally before going to bed every night from the first day after surgery. The catheter was removed and residual urine was measured in both groups 14 days after surgery, the catheter was successfully removed when the residual urine was less than 100ml. After 14 days, the patient was returned to the hospital for residual urine test, and the residual urine was repeated until the residual urine volume was less than or equal to 100ml. The incidence of postoperative urinary retention and adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the leading non-traumatic cause of severe acquired disability in young people. The disease is defined by relapses, which can affect all neurological functions depending on the location of the new inflammatory lesion(s). The disease can thus manifest itself through bladder and bowel disorders (BWS), which affect approximately 80% of MS patients in all stages. Lower urinary tract dysfunction has a significant negative impact on the quality of life of patients and places a significant burden on the healthcare system in terms of resource allocation. In addition, there is a risk of long-term chronic renal failure, an infectious risk (recurrent cystitis and/or pyelonephritis, sometimes life-threatening) and a lithiasis risk. The most frequently observed urinary symptoms are: urinary frequency, urgency with or without urinary incontinence, dysuria and chronic retention of urine. These disorders most often combine bladder hyperactivity and dysuria. This dysuria may be responsible for recurrent urinary tract infections, lithiasis, alteration of renal function. The only therapeutic class currently used to treat dysuria in MS is alpha-blockers. Tamsulosin, alfusozin and doxazosin induce relaxation of the urethral smooth sphincter and prostatic urethral muscle fibers, facilitating the removal of subvesical obstruction and bladder emptying. The study investigators hypothesize that treatment with tamsulosin 0.4 mg daily in adult MS patients with dysuria will result in symptom improvement as assessed by the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and Urinary Symptom Profile (USP) scores, a decrease in post-void residual, and an improvement in urine flow and quality of life.
The primary aim of this study will be to compare the rate of postoperative urinary retention between patients receiving Sugammadex and those receiving traditional reversal agents
The primary aim of this study is to compare the rate of acute urinary retention (AUR) after immediate compared to early (24-hours) removal of urinary catheter (UC) in patients undergoing minimally invasive colorectal resection. The study hypothesis is that immediate UC removal is non-inferior to 24-hours UC removal in terms of AUR rate. The secondary outcomes focus on goals that could be positively impacted by the immediate removal of the UC at the end of the surgery. In particular, the rate of urinary tract infections, perception of pain, time-to-return of bowel and physical functions, postoperative complications and postoperative length of stay will all be measured.
